I appreciate Reb Zalman tremendously. I do differ however with our prayers for Thanksgiving. I don’t feel very related, as a Jew, to our Puritan “ Foreparents,” but I feel very much that as a US citizen and as a US Jew, Thanksgiving is a very difficult holiday. It marks, to me, the beginning of the genocide against the Native peoples of these lands by the settlers from Europe, and while the claim in the mythology is that a peaceful dinner took place, the reality is that there was no peace before or after, and millions of lives of Native Americans were taken. With respect. Diane Balser Thank you very much for posting this. I appreciate Reb Zalman tremendously.
