The History of Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving is coming around and we’re diving into the woman who made this National Holiday possible, after trying for over 3 decades. Sarah Josepha Hale was a big advocate for women’s education - we get into her life story, good and bad. November is also American Indian Heritage month so we’ll also learn how Thanksgiving customs go back to not just natives in America but in Asia.
