This holiday season in the U.S. we have witnessed a white reconciliation across the spectra of (cis) gender, generation, and class, which is unfortunately coming at the expense of Queer civil rights and protections, as well as those for a wide variety of immigrants and Indigenous peoples.
So celebrate the spirit of giving thanks all you want, but spare us the hagiography of the Pilgrim myths and what you think it might mean for us as a contemporary pluralistic citizenry.
For we are nothing without the truths of our histories.
