Immigrant fleeing persecution in their homeland, put their lives endanger along with their children, to go to a new land in hopes of a better life. They traveled a great distance, not sure of what laid in store in a new country, called America. When they arrived, the Americans living there, gave them what little they had and help them survive. Those Native Americans, did not push them back in the ocean but received them with open arms. That was almost 400 years ago. The refugees were the Pilgrims and that is why we celebrate Thanksgiving.
