Brief history: Pilgrims from England fled to American on the May Flower. They were facing religious persecution and were looking a for a new life. They traveled 9 months on sea.
When they arrived they met Native Americans. The natives taught them how to grow food and therefore shared their meals with them. The natives and pilgrims lived peacefuly for a short period of time.
Every year Americans sit down and share a meal with their family and give thanks for all they have. Just like the pilgrims were when the natives taught them how to survive on their new land.
