Give Thanks No More
A National Day of
Atonement
By ROBERT JENSEN
One indication of moral progress in
the United States would be the replacement of Thanksgiving Day
and its self-indulgent family feasting with a National Day of
Atonement accompanied by a self-reflective collective fasting.
In fact, indigenous people have offered such a model; since 1970
they have marked the fourth Thursday of November as a Day of
Mourning in a spiritual/political ceremony on Coles Hill overlooking
Plymouth Rock, Massachusetts, one of the early sites of the European
invasion of the Americas.
Not only is the thought of such a change in this white-supremacist
holiday impossible to imagine, but the very mention of the idea
sends most Americans into apoplectic fits -- which speaks volumes
about our historical hypocrisy and its relation to the contemporary
politics of empire in the United States.
That the world's great powers achieved 'greatness' through criminal
brutality on a grand scale is not news, of course. That those
same societies are reluctant to highlight this history of barbarism
also is predictable.
But in the United States, this reluctance to acknowledge our
original sin -- the genocide of indigenous people -- is of special
importance today. It's now routine -- even among conservative
commentators -- to describe the United States as an empire, so
long as everyone understands we are an inherently benevolent
one. Because all our history contradicts that claim, history
must be twisted and tortured to serve the purposes of the powerful.
One vehicle for taming history is various patriotic holidays,
with Thanksgiving at the heart of U.S. myth-building. From an
early age, we Americans hear a story about the hearty Pilgrims,
whose search for freedom took them from England to Massachusetts.
There, aided by the friendly Wampanoag Indians, they survived
in a new and harsh environment, leading to a harvest feast in
1621 following the Pilgrims first winter.
Some aspects of the conventional story are true enough. But it's
also true that by 1637 Massachusetts Gov. John Winthrop was proclaiming
a thanksgiving for the successful massacre of hundreds of Pequot
Indian men, women and children, part of the long and bloody process
of opening up additional land to the English invaders. The pattern
would repeat itself across the continent until between 95 and
99 percent of American Indians had been exterminated and the
rest were left to assimilate into white society or die off on
reservations, out of the view of polite society.
Simply put: Thanksgiving is the day when the dominant white culture
(and, sadly, most of the rest of the non-white but non-indigenous
population) celebrates the beginning of a genocide that was,
in fact, blessed by the men we hold up as our heroic founding
fathers.
The first president, George Washington, in 1783 said he preferred
buying Indians' land rather than driving them off it because
that was like driving 'wild beasts' from the forest. He compared
Indians to wolves, 'both being beasts of prey, tho' they differ
in shape.' Thomas Jefferson -- president #3 and author of the
Declaration of Independence, which refers to Indians as the 'merciless
Indian Savages' -- was known to romanticize Indians and their
culture, but that didn't stop him in 1807 from writing to his
secretary of war that in a coming conflict with certain tribes,
'[W]e shall destroy all of them.'
As the genocide was winding down in the early 20th century, Theodore
Roosevelt (president #26) defended the expansion of whites across
the continent as an inevitable process 'due solely to the power
of the mighty civilized races which have not lost the fighting
instinct, and which by their expansion are gradually bringing
peace into the red wastes where the barbarian peoples of the
world hold sway.' Roosevelt also once said, 'I don't go so far
as to think that the only good Indians are dead Indians, but
I believe nine out of ten are, and I shouldn't like to inquire
too closely into the case of the tenth.'
How does a country deal with the fact that some of its most revered
historical figures had certain moral values and political views
virtually identical to Nazis? Here's how 'respectable' politicians,
pundits, and professors play the game:
When invoking a grand and glorious aspect of our past, then history
is all-important. We are told how crucial it is for people to
know history, and there is much hand wringing about the younger
generations' lack of knowledge about, and respect for, that history.
In the United States, we hear constantly about the deep wisdom
of the founding fathers, the adventurous spirit of the early
explorers, the gritty determination of those who 'settled' the
country -- and about how crucial it is for children to learn
these things.
But when one brings into historical discussions any facts and
interpretations that contest the celebratory story and make people
uncomfortable -- such as the genocide of indigenous people as
the foundational act in the creation of the United States --
suddenly the value of history drops precipitously and one is
asked, 'Why do you insist on dwelling on the past?'
This is the mark of a well-disciplined intellectual class --
one that can extol the importance of knowing history for contemporary
citizenship and, at the same time, argue that we shouldn't spend
too much time thinking about history.
This off-and-on engagement with history isn't of mere academic
interest; as the dominant imperial power of the moment, U.S.
elites have a clear stake in the contemporary propaganda value
of that history. Obscuring bitter truths about historical crimes
helps perpetuate the fantasy of American benevolence, which makes
it easier to sell contemporary imperial adventures -- such as
the invasion and occupation of Iraq -- as another benevolent
action.
Any attempt to complicate this story guarantees hostility from
mainstream culture. After raising the barbarism of America's
much-revered founding fathers in a lecture, I was once accused
of trying to 'humble our proud nation' and 'undermine young people's
faith in our country.'
Yes, of course -- that is exactly what I would hope to achieve.
We should practice the virtue of humility and avoid the excessive
pride that can, when combined with great power, lead to great
abuses of power.
History does matter, which is why people in power put so much
energy into controlling it. The United States is hardly the only
society that has created such mythology. While some historians
in Great Britain continue to talk about the benefits that the
empire brought to India, political movements in India want to
make the mythology of Hindutva into historical fact. Abuses of
history go on in the former empire and the former colony.
History can be one of the many ways we create and impose hierarchy,
or it can be part of a process of liberation. The truth won't
set us free, but the telling of truth at least opens the possibility
of freedom.
As Americans sit down on Thanksgiving Day to gorge themselves
on the bounty of empire, many will worry about the expansive
effects of overeating on their waistlines. We would be better
to think about the constricting effects on the day's mythology
on our minds.
