THE FIRST OFFICIAL THANKSGIVING
SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 6 PM
Through dramatic re-enactment and interviews, The First Official Thanksgiving challenges the long-held belief that America's first Thanksgiving was held in Plymouth and chronicles how the discovery of the Nibley papers led to a friendly rivalry between Virginia and Massachusetts about who can rightfully lay claim to the birth of America's Thanksgiving holiday.
