Brannon's Guest: Dr. Marshall Foster. Topic: The history behind the first Thanksgiving. Don't buy the politically correct version of Thanksgiving. Dr. Foster reveal the incredible history of how the Pilgrims landed off course and then met up with an Indian that had just returned to America from Europe after being taken as a slave. In addition, this Indian spoke English. If the Pilgrims had landed where they intended they most likely would have been killed. When landing at Plymouth Rock they found the land had already been cleared for crops. The Indian village that had done this work had been killed by a plague. Were all these circumstance a consequence or Divine providence? Hear how the Pilgrims rejected socialism.
