And as Americans we certainly value those traditions,\u201d Reid said of Thanksgiving.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut it\u2019s also important to unpack the myth of Thanksgiving. It is a holiday riddled with inaccuracies, built on this myth that the indigenous welcomed their colonizers with open arms and ears of corn; a simplistic fairytale interpretation of a 1621 encounter between indigenous tribes and English settlers that erases the genocide that followed,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p>Reid then accused Republicans of conspiratorially erasing American violence.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s the truth that Republicans want banned from our textbooks, because here\u2019s the secret they want so desperately to keep: We are a country founded on violence,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>The she claimed that \u201cwe are a country that still chooses violence.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur birth was violent. In 1619, a ship with more than 20 enslaved Africans landed in Virginia ushering in two centuries of American slavery that left millions in chains or dead. And when those humans in bondage were finally free, a terrorist organization that was a card-carrying member of polite society \u2014 the Ku Klux Klan \u2014picked up where the Civil War ended using violence to maintain white supremacy,\u201d she claimed.<\/p>\n<p>Conservatives took Reid to task:<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Joy Reid, screwed up head case who\u2019s hate for our fabulous country knows no limits<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/6DOIk3fV0m\">https:\/\/t.co\/6DOIk3fV0m<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Mark R.
