Right Coast Pizza put out an ad in an edgy music magazine. The ad showed a pilgrim woman offering a pizza to an indigenous man and apologizing for "all the smallpox." The ad was meant to be funny, but instead it created a social media backlash and both the magazine and the restaurant apologized. A town meeting was held and ended in hugs, but did that make everything OK?
Thanksgiving is a national holiday that was meant to unite a divided American country after a terrible and bloody civil war. It later became the starting line in the race to Christmas, but it has always been intended as the one holiday that everyone can celebrate as an American.
Except that not everyone sees Thanksgiving as something to celebrate and says "no thank you" to pizza and smallpox.
