Lincoln's Thanksgiving From the Hat: a PONDcast

    • Society & Culture

Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays! Harvest festivals have been around for millennia. Communities have been gathering to celebrate their bounty and enjoy gathering with others before they hunker down for the winter. Sometimes we get lost thinking it’s about pilgrims and native tribes in 1621. President Lincoln brought it back to the three core purposes: Gratitude, Unity, and their positive influence and support to endure hard times.
