I agree that students should have both sides of the story presented to them. <BR/><BR/>Oh, by the way, the Spanish held a "thanksgiving" feast in the Americas long before the Pilgrims. It doesn't matter who held it first ~ at least we celebrate and give thanks to the One who blesses us all.<BR/><BR/>Texas history is quite interesting especially when told from the point of view of Mexico. My education on Texas has been GREATLY updated since I was in elementary school ~ now I teach it!!<BR/><BR/>Happy Thanksgiving to you and your loved ones.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
