Thanksgiving, we all have something we can be thankful for Thanksgiving is a simple reflection on what we have and what we can be thankful for, whether in a spiritual or material context. With the experiences lived during the last months of the pandemic, it seems that we appreciate more the simple things, the family that we have close to us, our friends, whom we could not see for a long time. A good celebration of life !
The “turkey pardon”
Pardoning the turkey simply means preventing it from ending up on the White House table. The turkey pardon dates back to the 1970s, but it was George W. Bush who established it as a tradition.
Thereafter, every US president in the White House also pardons a turkey. The tradition has taken root and sometimes pardoned turkeys are even given names and become very popular for a few days.
