Clarksville Mayor Kim McMillan wishes everyone a Happy Thanksgiving
November 28, 2013

The first Thanksgiving feasts, we are told, were shared between the colonists and the Native Americans who had helped them survive. Indeed, those early celebrations recognized, at least in part, that without the natives, the settlers may not have survived.
