bellacalma:

…slaughtered by cristobal colon, john smith, and/or the pilgrims.  give thanks you didn’t grow up on a reservation without running water.  give thanks the economy of your nation doesn’t depend on casino money.  give thanks the government hasn’t stripped your nation of the rights to the minerals beneath the first foot of topsoil.  give thanks your nation hasn’t had to resort to banning the sale of alcohol on your reservation because of the massive dependancy problem, only to have capitalist americans set up liquor stores at the border to profit off of alcoholism.  give thanks your people don’t have their culture mocked and outwardly slandered by national football teams.  give thanks your culture is not a fashion trend.  give thanks the majority of americans don’t think of your people as extinct.  give thanks on this thanksgiving.

all of this.
thank you.
