The winter passed and spring came and life embraced us back

And we few we very few who was spared

Found help from an unexpected quarter.

Help from those very savages we had so feared,

from Massachusetts and the ever faithful squanto.

From them we learned how to sew our crops, how to work long hours?

Where to fish for herring and alewives?

We worked in common. Men and women, pilgrim and women women

pilgrim and stranger

white man and Indian

and at last the heart is time game.

And with it, our Thanksgiving. I'm going to. Oh, So we are joined by some special guests, returning guests to the show. We have with us,

Matoi and Kimimula. Can we start by having you all introduce yourself and the organization you're with and where you're

calling from? My name is Matoy as you said and I'm co-leader of United American

Indians of New England and also the lead organizer for the Massachusetts

Indigenous People's Day statewide movement.

And we're speaking to you from Boston.

My name's Kisha.

I'm a senior at Wellesley College.

I'm president of the Wellesley College Native American Student Association.

I'm a volunteer with United American Indians of New England

and my grandfather founded National Day of Morning.
