Thanksgiving Day in the US is a day, as its name implies, to thank God for all the blessings. But it is not a festive occasion for the Native American Indians in the US. They call this day a day of mourning , for its marks a dark chapter in their lives win which their ancestral lands were taken away from tham, marked by forced removals.
