National Day of Mourning

"Since 1970, Native Americans have gathered at noon on Cole's Hill
in Plymouth to commemorate a National Day of Mourning on the U.S. Thanksgiving holiday. Many Native Americans do not celebrate
the arrival of the Pilgrims and other European settlers.
To them, Thanksgiving Day is a reminder of the genocide of millions
of their people, the theft of their lands,
and the relentless assault on their culture..."
