Hey history explorers! Get ready to look *way* past the giant
turkey and pumpkin pie! Mira and Finn are diving deep into the
true origins of Thanksgiving, and the real story is much cooler
and more complicated than what's in your textbook.

We’re traveling all the way back to the autumn of 1621 in
Plymouth, where a group of English newcomers called the Pilgrims
were struggling to survive! Luckily, the powerful Wampanoag
Nation was already there, and they were the true experts of the
land. Did you know the famous 'first Thanksgiving' wasn't
actually called Thanksgiving? And it wasn't just a big dinner—it
was a complex agreement and a massive harvest festival that
lasted for days!

Join us to uncover the secrets: Who were the real heroes of 1621?
Why was this amazing feast almost forgotten? And how did it
become the huge holiday we celebrate today? Get ready for some
major history secrets that involve survival, cooperation, and
massive feasts!
