Description
This presentation explores the complex relationship between two distinct cultures: the Wampanoag Nation, an Algonquian-speaking Indigenous group, and the Pilgrims, a group of religious dissenters who separated from the Church of England. We will examine the historical context of the 1620 landing of the Pilgrims on Cape Cod and the interactions that followed, revealing the real story behind the so-called “First Thanksgiving.” Join us to gain a deeper understanding of this pivotal moment in American history and the lasting impact of these cultural encounters.
