The origin of this holiday dates back to the early 17th century when the Pilgrims held a feast in 1621 to give thanks for a bountiful harvest and to express gratitude for the assistance provided by the Wampanoag people.
However, some people, particularly those from Native American communities, question the origin of this tradition. They view Thanksgiving as a day that commemorates a historical narrative overlooking the negative impact of European colonization on Indigenous populations.
