RESOURCES
For Thanks-taking (aka Thanksgiving) we want to highlight these first two resources. Because Thanks-taking is a celebration of European settler violence in the so-called United States, it’s a great time to talk with your family and friends about how this history affects all of us in the present. We developed these documents to support you in staying grounded, educated, and true to your values in these conversations.
