Washington University's Office for International Student Engagement and Cross-Cultural Connections invited students to learn about the "impact of colonization on Native American communities" at their "Decolonizing Thanksgiving" event on November 22.

"We can redefine the meaning of Thanksgiving to remember and respect indigenous peoples' histories," it says.

"This is definitely a day of trauma and definitely a day of historical significance to native and indigenous folks," event organizer Jordyn Orozco told the local outlet. "While Thanksgiving is celebrated by some, that actual day of Thanksgiving the 28, which is the National Day of Mourning, is a day of remembrance and a day of sort of a way to honor those that have passed and to acknowledge that history was rewritten to erase the trauma that this community has faced."
