The Real Events of Thanksgiving Should Be Taught on the Holiday

On the fourth Thursday of the United States of America each November, we celebrate Thanksgiving as a citizen and an individual family. For most Americans, we serve the best dishes and have a big meal with Turkey, seasoning, mung bean casserole and pumpkin pie. Families gathered, eat until we get stuffed, play games, and watch football, why? Did we lose the real meaning behind starting our country? We have our own tradition, but somehow we have lost the importance of the betrayal of the country.

Below is the theme of Thanksgiving and family talks. Origin of Thanksgiving. Lincoln declared Thanksgiving as a federal vacation in 1863, but the Thanksgiving tradition has been centuries. Until Lincoln, it has been celebrated all over the country as a provincial and rural festival. The first official who announced Thanksgiving was John Winslow, the Third Governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. He announced the declaration in 1637 to celebrate the return of people in the Pequot war in Connecticut. Another colonial settler at the time, William Bradford left a historical record of victory:

Indeed, the colonial settlers in the UK and Spain celebrated Thanksgiving around their early days. Throughout the 19th century, New Englanders celebrated such with the family and friends. However, as a national event, this holiday dates back to 1863. In that year, President Lincoln announced "gratitude and praise day" in honor of the country's blessing during the civil war. So why associate Thanksgiving with pilgrims? In the latter half of the 19th century Jews, Italians, Chinese people and other outsiders emigrated and American cultural leaders recognized the decline of the two historical evidences since the early 17th century and the pilgrim's Thanksgiving Accepted. A story to make increasingly diverse American population

By the middle of the 19th century, many states observed Thanksgiving holidays. At the same time, poet and editor Sarah J. Hale began lobbying for National Thanksgiving holidays. During the Civil War, President Abraham Lincoln sought the way of the United Nations and discussed this issue with Hale. In 1863, he announced the last Thursday of November as a Thanksgiving declaration. In 1939, 1940 and 1941, Franklin D. Roosevelt tried to extend the Christmas shopping season, and announced Thanksgiving on the third Thursday in November. The Congress passed a joint resolution in 1941 and announced that Thanksgiving should be held on the fourth Thursday of November.
