A Blue Avocado Thanksgiving
Email
PrintSome Thanksgiving stuff we like from Blue Avocado's archives and elsewhere:
[4]
- "Tha [5]nksgiving: A Native American View [5]," a classic essay by Jacqueline Keeler of the American Indian Child Resource Center in Oakland, California
- "Turkey Giveaway on the Crow Foundation [4]": last year we profiled Peggy Wellknown Buffalo of Montana, and just last week she was named a U.S. Human Rights Hero by the Petra Foundation for her work in social justice
-
"The Trouble with Turkey [6]," a look by Bob Kim at the path from farm to table and the nonprofits that line that path
- "The Plymouth Thanksgiving Story and Introduction [7]": when did you last read about the real Thanksgiving? Fourth grade? Here's a fast, highly readable article with the historical facts and a Wampanoag perspective. Print it out and read it on the way home. Click here [7] for the pdf.
- Make a Turkey Day Box [8] . . . print, cut out, and tape together a few of these cute little boxes from About.com (it looks a little blurry on screen but prints fine). A perfect lunchroom activity. Click here [8] for the pdf.
