You know, 285 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 1: her school is pretty progressive, which is why I chose it. 286 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 1: It's very it's pretty diverse. I mean obviously, like we 287 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 1: live in the valley. It's as diverse as you're going 288 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:46,440 Speaker 1: to get. But it was really something that I really 289 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 1: when I was looking for her school. I chose the 290 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 1: school specifically because it was a really is they have 291 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:55,960 Speaker 1: a really good program and it's all about you know, 292 00:13:56,000 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 1: creativity and exploring.

And also like, 330 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 2: but when do like it is three too early or 331 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 2: too I think you can't. 332 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 1: I don't plan on telling my daughter like the grouy details, 333 00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 1: but I want her to know, like. 334 00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 2: The Pilgrims didn't come safe for the Native Americans and 335 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:01,239 Speaker 2: everybody sat down, held hands. 336 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 1: And y and I just feel like, I just feel 337 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 1: like it's yeah, within the time that we are living 338 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:16,520 Speaker 1: in where it's they're so racially charged, you know, even religion, 339 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:18,840 Speaker 1: you know what I mean is a very touchy subject 340 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:22,240 Speaker 1: like that, I feel like you have to be careful. 341 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 1: And I was really pissed. 342 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 2: I think it's very white privilege to continue this narrative 343 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 2: and not consider. 344 00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 1: I think it's irresponsible. It's irresponsible for these schools to 345 00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 1: do that. Because of the Internet, we can look this 346 00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 1: shit up and find out the details.

And 351 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:56,040 Speaker 1: I don't know. I just feel like, I feel like 352 00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 1: schools need to have like forms where you can opt 353 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:00,640 Speaker 1: out of things if you want to, you know what 354 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 1: I mean. You need to stop teaching bullshit. 355 00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 2: And and you said something yesterday and it was so 356 00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 2: on point. And it's scary because if we kind of 357 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:08,600 Speaker 2: I think, I don't know, I ramble a lot, but 358 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:11,960 Speaker 2: we talked. We touched on this last episode about programming 359 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 2: and how many like the levels of it and how 360 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 2: in depth it can become. But you said it's the 361 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 2: beginning of the programming, and damn, you just remind me 362 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 2: of this book I want to read, but it's about 363 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 2: how school is the beginning of programming and how you know, 364 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:28,920 Speaker 2: basically they breed cheap. 365 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:32,680 Speaker 1: It's basically like the Bible. Textbooks are like the form 366 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 1: of the Bible. It's programmings like what are what our 367 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:36,680 Speaker 1: belief systems are, how we believe things. 368 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,439 Speaker 2: Went down even even even to if we talk about 369 00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 2: like slavery, not to say the Bible like I don't 370 00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 2: want all the people that. 371 00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 1: Are the Bible is bullshit too. I mean, don't get 372 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 1: me wrong, there's definitely parts of it that are maybe 373 00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 1: may or may not have happened our lessons that you know, 374 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:53,240 Speaker 1: I think, you know, our humanity needs to know in 375 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 1: some regard, you know what I mean? 376 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 2: I think is it translated differently? I think people have buffeted, 377 00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:58,919 Speaker 2: taken and given what they think is right. And I 378 00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 2: think it's been whitewashed a lot, and well not even really. 379 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:03,399 Speaker 2: They just put these white pictures up, but if you 380 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:06,399 Speaker 2: actually read the scriptures, it's like he had hair of 381 00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:08,560 Speaker 2: boul nothing. 382 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:11,440 Speaker 1: Like this chiky blonde shit we see. 383 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:13,960 Speaker 2: So everything is Yeah, if you don't pay attention, you'll 384 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 2: get God. But why should we even have to pay 385 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 2: attention when she'd just be telling people the truth from 386 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:17,480 Speaker 2: the beginning. 387 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I felt like so then I started thinking after 388 00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:24,959 Speaker 1: you know, I picked her up and I was like, really, like, damn, 389 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:28,840 Speaker 1: what like I do? Then I was like, well, am 390 00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 1: I a hypocrite because I celebrate Thanksgiving? And I was like, well, 391 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 1: I think obviously, you know we're celebrating it on this day. 392 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 1: This is supposed to be the day of the first harvest. 393 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:42,720 Speaker 1: That's basically what the roots of the root of Thanksgiving is. 394 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:47,520 Speaker 1: It commemorates the first harvest in sixteen twenty one, which 395 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:52,920 Speaker 1: I believe was a peaceful day that day, that day. 396 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 1: But I don't really connect the history and Thanksgiving together, 397 00:18:57,640 --> 00:18:59,439 Speaker 1: Like for me, it's a day where me and my 398 00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 1: family together we break bread and eat. But what I 399 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 1: will do this Thanksgiving moving forward? Because I think my 400 00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:11,720 Speaker 1: outrage and my sensitivity to like all the race, sex, religion, 401 00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:17,720 Speaker 1: all those things, I'm definitely understanding and it's importance to 402 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:19,440 Speaker 1: me is definitely at all time high in my life 403 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:22,159 Speaker 1: right now that on Thanksgiving, the cer I said, I 404 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,800 Speaker 1: said on my Instagram stories that you know, while I'm 405 00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:27,119 Speaker 1: eating my meal, I want to take a moment to 406 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 1: honor and thank my ancestors, and to honor and thank 407 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:36,160 Speaker 1: the Native Americans, not think them, but like mourn them, 408 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:37,119 Speaker 1: and that. 409 00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:42,359 Speaker 2: Lost recognize the atrocity that went down on the land 410 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:47,159 Speaker 2: that we are now on and breaking bread in the 411 00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 2: name of harmony when in. 412 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 1: Fact that was not it at all. 413 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:54,879 Speaker 2: I think it's essential that we give thanks and you know, 414 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:59,080 Speaker 2: like recognition to what really happened and kind of reflect 415 00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 2: on that day. I used to say when I was 416 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:03,800 Speaker 2: a teenager, when I was a rebellious pro black teenager, 417 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 2: that I was going to fast on Thanksgiving. 418 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:09,400 Speaker 1: My fat asset has never happened, but that was my plan. 419 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:13,199 Speaker 2: Instead of indulging, I was going to fast. But I 420 00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 2: just I do agree. I think that what we acknowledge 421 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,639 Speaker 2: it as now as family, as giving thanks a we 422 00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 2: should be grateful in giving thanks and gratitude daily. But 423 00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:27,920 Speaker 2: I do respect that that narrative, but I don't respect 424 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:31,440 Speaker 2: that we've totally forgotten where it really stemmed. 425 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:36,000 Speaker 3: From go ahead with your facts out there, I mean 426 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 3: because I started looking things up because I wanted to 427 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:43,760 Speaker 3: educate myself on this, because it after yesterday's. 428 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:48,439 Speaker 1: Moments with Iri and her pilgrim outfit, I was like, 429 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:50,479 Speaker 1: you know, well, what am I going to tell her 430 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:53,720 Speaker 1: about Thanksgiving? Like what I need to educate myself more 431 00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 1: on Thanksgiving and how I'm going to even talk to 432 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:58,119 Speaker 1: this about my daughter one day because even I asked her, 433 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 1: I was like, so what do they tell you? What 434 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:02,639 Speaker 1: do they tell you today at school, babe? And she 435 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:05,879 Speaker 1: was like, I don't know. Luckily, they're like young and 436 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:08,160 Speaker 1: they're like, god, I know, I feel lucky. I feel 437 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:10,920 Speaker 1: like I caught it early. I feel like I caught 438 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 1: it early. I actually felt that way. I was like, Okay, 439 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:15,440 Speaker 1: you know what, there's probably not much damage done yet. 440 00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:18,119 Speaker 2: But now you know that you have to actually like 441 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 2: look into the curriculum of the school. 442 00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:22,440 Speaker 1: And I can't even say damage. I say damage in 443 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 1: the way of just like not knowing your history of 444 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 1: like and why you're here. You know what I mean? 445 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:30,480 Speaker 1: I mean, because I mean, guess it is damaging in 446 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:33,360 Speaker 1: a way. I guess it is damaging. 447 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,719 Speaker 2: It's I feel like it's I felt when I when 448 00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:38,240 Speaker 2: I got older and realized. 449 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:40,639 Speaker 1: That the system was so so many. 450 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:43,879 Speaker 2: Lies and so corrupt, I felt I felt like I 451 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 2: got cheated, Like I'm you're making me go to school. 452 00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:49,439 Speaker 2: It's so important. But in the and then when you're 453 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:50,960 Speaker 2: coming home and telling me they're teaching me some shit 454 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 2: that's completely opposite of what they're saying, I'm like, why 455 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:57,080 Speaker 2: am I going? They're stupid? So I think, yeah, I 456 00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 2: think I think it sucks up the trust because you're 457 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:04,199 Speaker 2: insisting I go in this system and I finish, and 458 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 2: I do this, and I do and I get good 459 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:06,440 Speaker 2: grades and I go to college. 460 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:09,119 Speaker 1: But on the contracts. My dad is probably. 461 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 2: Equally not as equally as crazy as me, but he's 462 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:14,640 Speaker 2: not religious. I think as he gotten older, he's been 463 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 2: less crazy. But he used to tell me like Jesus 464 00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 2: is some white man somebody made up and everybody believed, 465 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 2: Like we didn't really do like a lot of holidays. 466 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 2: But it's just like there's a trust there, like in 467 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:30,680 Speaker 2: the school system and your parents and people in general, 468 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 2: you know that they be honest and even as like 469 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:37,399 Speaker 2: a black woman, and I look back at like what 470 00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:42,359 Speaker 2: I've been taught and the curriculum, even like slavery, like 471 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 2: I feel like it's always like a month out of 472 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:48,640 Speaker 2: every like if that's the period we touched on, it's 473 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:49,200 Speaker 2: like a month. 474 00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 1: I've never had a month along slavery lesson. 475 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:56,960 Speaker 2: Maybe I'm two weeks and Black history always starts with slavery? 476 00:22:57,760 --> 00:22:59,880 Speaker 1: What does black like?

How it's something that's not 494 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:08,959 Speaker 1: talked about a lot a lot, and their land is 495 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 1: taking taken away now with pipelines and stuff. Yeah, the 496 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:14,239 Speaker 1: lands we gave them were like never mind, actually mean, 497 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:16,199 Speaker 1: we don't need that because it's actually on top of 498 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:19,119 Speaker 1: some ship we actually need. So you know, it's just 499 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:22,720 Speaker 1: it's just horrible, and I think that's what enrages me, 500 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:25,199 Speaker 1: Like they've gotten away with it for well, then they 501 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 1: got and then I was just like Okay. After I left, 502 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 1: I was like, damn, I didn't even because it was 503 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 1: nap time and everyone was like quieting and laying down. 504 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:33,159 Speaker 1: I didn't even see if any kids were wearing like 505 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:37,919 Speaker 1: Native American outfits. I'm like, you know, like that probably 506 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 1: if I don't know, if I was in the Native 507 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:42,240 Speaker 1: American outfit, I probably would have been like, are you 508 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:46,639 Speaker 1: finding serious? H what have? What? 509 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:51,679 Speaker 2: Have I cared more or less in either outfit? I 510 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:54,199 Speaker 2: think I'm more. I don't even know. 511 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:57,120 Speaker 1: I don't know, I felt, I don't know who knows. 512 00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:00,440 Speaker 2: I just think that the whole story is wrong. So 513 00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 2: unless you're back there telling them the absolutely true, I mean, 514 00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:05,080 Speaker 2: I don't know. I think it's odd, but yeah, the 515 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 2: Pilgrim thinks particularly is odd because in hindsight, you later 516 00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:16,600 Speaker 2: in history became our slave drivers. So yeah, no, it's 517 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 2: still rather racist. 518 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 1: There's also no evidence that Native Americans were invited to 519 00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:26,720 Speaker 1: this to this meal. Yeah, there's like a lot of 520 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 1: speculation about what this whole thing, how it all happened, 521 00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:33,439 Speaker 1: you know, what the day actually represents. You know, some 522 00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 1: people say that, you know, it was basically in celebration 523 00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:41,160 Speaker 1: of a mass genocide of a tribe. So it's called 524 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:47,080 Speaker 1: the Pequod tribe, and they were just they killed women, children, babies, 525 00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 1: And that's a fact. That's a fact. That's a fact 526 00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:50,919 Speaker 1: that they did that. It's just not it's not a 527 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:52,000 Speaker 1: fact that that's that they. 528 00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:55,480 Speaker 2: Killed all the buffalo so that they would kill their 529 00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:56,200 Speaker 2: food supply. 530 00:25:57,160 --> 00:26:01,200 Speaker 1: They killed like thousands of buffalo. There's photographs. 531 00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:04,679 Speaker 2: It's just like buffalo stacked just dead because they're like 532 00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:07,359 Speaker 2: natural to the United States, we don't see a fucking 533 00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:09,920 Speaker 2: buffalo because they extinct them like they do. 534 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:13,080 Speaker 1: And it's you, it's. 535 00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:17,280 Speaker 2: Just we have some dark history man's bloodland. 536 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:18,879 Speaker 1: How do you how do you think you'll talk to 537 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,240 Speaker 1: Luna about stuff like this? Do you start? Are you 538 00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 1: gonna start now? And if you do out, what are 539 00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:28,040 Speaker 1: you gonna tell her? Yeah, I'm gonna keep it real. 540 00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 2: Her span of shit is way more than I've ever 541 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:37,240 Speaker 2: I didn't realize even if death, Like when she says 542 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:40,000 Speaker 2: like it's gonna die, what does that mean. 543 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:44,280 Speaker 1: I doesn't like to say the word death. I don't 544 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:46,119 Speaker 1: even know where she learns that that's a bad word. Well, 545 00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:47,960 Speaker 1: you know, I noticed too, which is this is odd. 546 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:51,080 Speaker 1: But I realized that because we say Luna says all 547 00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 1: the time, your phone's gonna die, your phone's gonna die. 548 00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:56,679 Speaker 1: And then in life, I mean, since we've discussed oh, 549 00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:58,560 Speaker 1: like Michael Jackson, she knows who Michael Jackson is, or 550 00:26:58,600 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 1: Bob Marley, like, oh, he died. 551 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 2: So I wonder how like the word relates. 552 00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, when we say our prayer, she says a prayer night, 553 00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:09,960 Speaker 1: and she says, you know, and if I die before 554 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:12,360 Speaker 1: I wake, she doesn't want to say that. She said, 555 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:12,840 Speaker 1: I don't want. 556 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 2: To say that. 557 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:15,479 Speaker 1: I don't want to say it either. I feel it's 558 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 1: kind of dark. 559 00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 2: A lot of shit we do is dark, and we 560 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:18,600 Speaker 2: don't realize it. 561 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,160 Speaker 1: Until we change it. We say fly to my fly 562 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 1: before I wait. And even but if I'm like the 563 00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:27,280 Speaker 1: last part, I pray the Lord my soul to take 564 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 1: like low key, that's creepy. 565 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:32,080 Speaker 2: It's creepy as fun we do some ship we're like, 566 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:35,680 Speaker 2: we don't even realize, like even a funeral, it's so creepy. 567 00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 1: That's all. We're black and look at a body. Well, yeah, 568 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,160 Speaker 1: it's all ceremonial. When I when you watch those old 569 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:46,719 Speaker 1: like those old movies in the back of the day, 570 00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:48,840 Speaker 1: a lot of those like well no, I mean, I 571 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:52,200 Speaker 1: don't know if they come from you know, native stuff, right, 572 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:54,520 Speaker 1: you know, or some some people make their own weird, 573 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:56,760 Speaker 1: fucked depth traditions too, and ceremonies. 574 00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:59,159 Speaker 2: But this is why it's important to go back and 575 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:01,720 Speaker 2: listen to our episode that are Halloween episodes. Yes you 576 00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:04,360 Speaker 2: sacrificed what because we touch on these things and now 577 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:05,960 Speaker 2: we're seeing how much it really relates. 578 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:14,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, but I will be. I am celebrating I say, Thanksgiving, 579 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:21,080 Speaker 1: Indigenous People's say, oh yeah, Indigenous People's Day, and this 580 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:23,960 Speaker 1: year I'm looking at it and in the light of that, 581 00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 1: it's a celebration of bringing people together but also acknowledging, 582 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:34,720 Speaker 1: you know, and warning the people that lost. I don't. 583 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:36,960 Speaker 1: I don't know. I just feel like I just feel 584 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:39,440 Speaker 1: weird about the Thanksgiving I'm trying to like rationalize it 585 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:42,320 Speaker 1: in my mind, like I'm going to go to my parents' Thanksgiving, 586 00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:44,640 Speaker 1: but next year maybe I won't have Thanksgiving. 587 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like I don't know. I go back 588 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 2: and forth. Like I said, I used to think I 589 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,040 Speaker 2: was gonna fast and don't do that. But it's like 590 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:54,280 Speaker 2: we're just eating dinner, and you know, it's just dinner. 591 00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:57,720 Speaker 2: I know, or at least I think at least it's 592 00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 2: acknowledge it in the prayer tomorrow, you know, and let's 593 00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:03,880 Speaker 2: keep us remember while we enjoyed this dinner together that 594 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:05,640 Speaker 2: people sacrificed and you know. 595 00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 1: Were killed, Yeah, brutally. Yeah, so we can sit here 596 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:14,160 Speaker 1: and have this meal. Were not really so we could 597 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:16,080 Speaker 1: because we probably would have been sitting here and having 598 00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 1: this meal anyway. Yeah, you know what I mean, Like 599 00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:20,440 Speaker 1: people were going to find the land. It's just how 600 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:25,680 Speaker 1: it was done. All the diseases that were brought as well, 601 00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:30,480 Speaker 1: which is a whole other thing. It's just those colonizers. 602 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:33,760 Speaker 1: They will do it. They'll kill you. They'll kill you, 603 00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 1: they'll try and kill you. 604 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,280 Speaker 2: I think the most beautiful part of it all though, 605 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:40,840 Speaker 2: is like there's so many attempted genocides, and I'm sure 606 00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 2: some successful, but like they're still Native Americans. There's still 607 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:48,640 Speaker 2: people practicing their rituals. There's still black people like you 608 00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 2: could are, there's still Jewish people like you can try 609 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:53,240 Speaker 2: and take some people away, but then they multiply. 610 00:29:55,400 --> 00:30:01,280 Speaker 1: True. Well, I don't know, I don't feel like Native Americans, 611 00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:03,160 Speaker 1: like a lot of Native people lost their lives and 612 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:04,479 Speaker 1: there's not as many as there would be. 613 00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:06,360 Speaker 2: Oh hell no, there's not as many as there would be. 614 00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:10,120 Speaker 2: There should be more of them than they have everybody else. Right, 615 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 2: they're here first, unless you're brutally murdered by disgusting. 616 00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 1: Settler Pilgrims separatists, separatist but anyway, Yeah, so I'm gonna wait, 617 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:31,480 Speaker 1: it's thanks but thanksga. Thing is not religiously feeled, right, 618 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 1: Is this like a Christian thing? Kind of right? Because 619 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:38,640 Speaker 1: the Pilgrims started, the Pilgrims were Christian. Well, I think 620 00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 1: that it's not a No, it's not really a religious holiday. 621 00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:47,920 Speaker 1: I guess it's more of a spiritual holiday. It's an 622 00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 1: American holiday. Yeah, it's an American holiday. And it only 623 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 1: became a holiday because Abraham Lincoln was like, this is look, 624 00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:58,080 Speaker 1: we're making this a holiday Abraham link. It was like, look, 625 00:30:58,120 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 1: I got a few things, like I got to check 626 00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:03,520 Speaker 1: off checklist before I'm done.
