A Complicated Holiday With a Grim History Appriaches: American Thanksgiving.
Protea Wellness stands wuth indigenous peoples on this day, and every day.
Although the official American story of Thanksgiving has been sanitized and celebrated by many people in the United States for over 200 years, it is a day of mourning for many indigenous communities.
So, this upcoming Thursday, Protea Wellness encourages all of us to focus on indigenous-led history about the events behind the story, to shop at indigenous-owned businesses, and to donate to indigenous organizations like Real Rent Duwamish.
