Jacqueline Keeler on the Myth of Thanksgiving and Offensive Native Mascotery

Thanksgiving is a time to give thanks but for many the problematic history of the creation of this holiday casts a shadow on what Thanksgiving is supposed to represent.  On Thanksgiving morning, on KBOO, we bring you Indigenous voices on a Colonial Holiday.

This Audio is part of a 4-hour Thanksgiving Special: Indigenous Voices on a Colonial Holiday

8:00 AM - 9:00 AM:
Conversation with Jacqueline Keeler, local activist, writer and one of the founding members of Eradicating Offensive Native Mascotery. This is a Talk show and we encourage your participation.
