Everything You Thought You Knew About Thanksgiving Is Wrong
The Mayflower. Plymouth Rock. The First Thanksgiving. These images are seared into American memory like childhood bedtime stories. But what happened after the feast? Fifty-six years later, another ship-the Seaflower-departed New England carrying 180 Native American slaves bound for Caribbean plantations, authorized by the children of those same Pilgrims who once depended on indigenous kindness for survival. This jarring contrast reveals a truth we've carefully avoided: America's origin story doesn't end with shared turkey and gratitude. It culminates in one of the bloodiest conflicts in our history, a war so devastating it nearly erased both cultures from New England entirely. The real story isn't about how different peoples came together-it's about how fifty years of fragile coexistence collapsed into mutual destruction.
