Neil GaimanIt was a non-traditional Thanksgiving, far from America, with mostly not-American friends and family. And it was a joy, eating together, being with each other and being grateful. Even if I did have to explain to my mother several times that Thanksgiving had nothing to do with the War of Independence so even English people were allowed to eat a lot and be grateful for each other and their lives.

The main point of Thanksgiving is to direct attention away from countless acts of genocide by America.
I love the opportunity to make a big meal for my family, but it's hard for me to forget that part.
