let us give thanks for the horn of plenty… of stolen land

In many Indigenous cultures we celebrate the changing of the seasons and thank Creator and Mother Earth for blessing us with a prosperous harvest and bounty to carry into the next season. Giving thanks and giving respect to the land for supporting the livelihood of our communities. Overtime, colonization took this practice and shaped it into something of its own; a celebration of one’s own conquest, admiration toward the Monarch, a Christian ceremony of giving thanks and the list goes on. Each grouping of people recognize and come together to give thanks for many different reasons… but how did y’all forget about the land?
