From Turtle Island To Palestine, The Struggle Continues On 2023 NDOM
What are the foundational myths of the U.S.? Who created them, and who do they erase and harm? For the past 53 years, United American Indians of New England (UAINE) and supporters have gathered on so-called Thanksgiving Day in Plymouth, Massachusetts, to ask these questions, confront settler mythologies, and commemorate a National Day of Mourning for the Indigenous people murdered by settler colonialism and imperialism worldwide, from Turtle Island to Palestine.
The National Day of Mourning protest was founded by Wamsutta Frank James, an Aquinnah Wampanoag tribal member.
