IN the United States, Thanksgiving is celebrated on the 4th
Thursday of November. The first Thanksgiving was celebrated by the Pilgrims in 1621. The celebration was based on harvest traditions that the colonists brought with them from England. In
1863, Thanksgiving as a national holiday. Many American families get together to watch football. However, beyond food and football, Thanksgiving is also about friendship and partnership.
Pilgrims and Native Americans, who were once enemies, reaped a successful harvest by working together. At the first Thanksgiving, they ate, sang, and danced together for three days. The modern
Thanksgiving Day celebrations celebrate nearly the same spirit what with people of different cultures coming to reside in the country and the modern emphasis on national and multicultural integrity
and harmony.
