In 1620, about 100 religious Pilgrims left England on the Mayflower for the "New World" and landed in modern-day southeastern Massachusetts, a region inhabited by the Wampanoag people. For American culture, the story of the Pilgrims, including their “first Thanksgiving” feast with the local Native Americans, has become the ruling creation narrative, celebrated each November along with turkey, pumpkin pie, and football games. The Mashpee Wampanoag first encountered the Pilgrims who arrived on the Mayflower ship in 1620. They say much is missing from the often-told Thanksgiving story. The first Thanksgiving was a harvest celebration held by the pilgrims of Plymouth colony in the 17th century. Many myths surround the first Thanksgiving. Very little is actually known about the event because only two firsthand accounts of the feast were ever written. From the landing on Plymouth Rock to the harmonious feast with the native Wampanoags, the story about the Pilgrims — and by extension, the story of Thanksgiving — is rife with myth and inaccuracy. Romanticized paintings and stereotypical images of "Pilgrims" and "Indians" celebrating the "First Thanksgiving" became part of the national nostalgia and Manifest Destiny sentiment as the United States pushed west. Americans are told the first Thanksgiving took place in 1621, when the Pilgrim settlers of Plymouth, Massachusetts, invited the Wampanoag to a harvest feast. The story goes the meal invite was to thank them for their help in planting crops, and that a warm friendship budded between the two people groups. But the first Thanksgiving in 1621, shared between the Pilgrims of the Plymouth Colony and the Wampanoag people, looked quite different—and its significance runs deeper than the food on the table. For the Christian, the deepest roots of our thanksgiving go way back before the Pilgrims. Here’s the true story of thanksgiving in four stages.
