What Is Thanksgiving?
Thanksgiving is a national holiday in the United States, celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November with a traditional feast and by gathering with family and friends. The origin of Thanksgiving dates back to 1621 when a harvest feast was held between the Wampanoag, a Native tribe who occupied the land long before, and the newly settled English colonists in America.
Later in 1863, Abraham Lincoln, the 16th president of the United States, who guided the country through the Civil War, declared Thanksgiving a holiday.
Other customs of the day include Thanksgiving Day parades, especially the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade, donating essentials to those in need and the presidential turkey pardons.
