Event Description
Event hosted by Direct Action Everywhere. This is a free event.
On "Thanksgiving" we will be taking time to learn about Indigenous resistance by watching a short documentary called "Water Warriors" and discussing the violent and painful history of the "holiday". It is important we educate ourselves and stand in solidarity with Indigenous Peoples as best we are able to. Many activists for animal liberation already oppose "Thanksgiving" because of the mass murder of 46 million turkeys every year to "celebrate" the date. But our advocacy cannot stop there, we must oppose the racist and anti-Inidgenous realities of "Thanksgiving" as well.
