Feast and Famine: Rethinking Thanksgiving Through Indigenous Eyes and Modern Inequality
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This Thanksgiving, join Aya Fubara-Eneli and historian Dr. Travis T. Armstrong for a powerful, truth-telling conversation that challenges the mythology surrounding one of America's most beloved holidays.
The story many of us learned about Pilgrims and Native peoples joining hands in harmony is incomplete—and in many ways, intentionally misleading. Behind the sanitized tale lies a deeper history of Wampanoag generosity, colonial betrayal, land theft, and centuries-long inequality that continues to shape the lives of Indigenous peoples across the United States today.
This episode helps us understand Thanksgiving through Indigenous eyes—so we can rethink not only the holiday, but the systems that determine who feasts and who goes hungry.
In This Episode:
- The real history of Thanksgiving and the central role of the Wampanoag Nation
- The impact of colonial violence Native Nations
- Why many Native communities observe a National Day of Mourning
- How food insecurity, poverty, and health disparities stem from colonial policy
- How rethinking Thanksgiving helps us reimagine freedom, justice, and communal well-being
