About this Event
You're invited!
The 3rd annual 7DS Truthsgiving will take place Sunday November 17th in Pleasant Grove, NC, in the heart of the Occaneechi Saponi community.
Truthsgiving is a free, family-friendly event that draws out hundreds of folks each year. Through puppetry and storytelling, panels, creative arts and Indigenous foods, we uplift the untold historical truths of the U.S. Thanksgiving holiday, and amplify Indigenous resistance and visions for the future.
