Thanksgiving is often associated with a peaceful harvest celebration between Pilgrims and Native Americans, particularly the Wampanoag tribe, in 1621. However, this event occurred in a context of conflict and tension between European settlers and Indigenous peoples. Following this initial feast, relations deteriorated, leading to violent conflicts, such as King Philip's War in the 1670s, which resulted in significant loss of life and land for Native Americans. Thus, while the Thanksgiving itself was not a war, it was set against a backdrop of ongoing struggles and conflict.
