Analysis of the Relationship Between the American Indians and European Settlers

The story of the early interaction between European American settlers and their aborigines is often distorted history. When I was a child, we grew up at school and learned how the first Thanksgiving and the pilgrims lived peacefully with the Wampanagu Indians in Plymouth colony. As an educator, we showed part of the assessment of Wampanoag Indian Squanto and how he helped pilgrims by teaching pilgrims how to raise corn and how to catch squid from neighboring rivers I will.

However, the original Thanksgiving story tells a concise story of peace and gratitude between American Indians and European settlers. Like Columbus Day, many people believe that Thanksgiving is a celebration of genocide by European settlers and conquest of American Indians. Since 1970, New England 's American Indian organization has accused American and European settlers by creating a Thanksgiving story and washing American Indian massacres and wrongdoing. Under the name of social equality and political prisoners, this organization celebrated Thanksgiving at Plymouth Rock in Plymouth, Massachusetts.
