Re: How accurate/correct is this?
[ QUOTE ]
Here's a more complete quote: "On November 25th, 1491 Santiago defeats the last Muslim stronghold, Grenada King Ferdinand gave thanks to God for victory And the Pope of Rome and declared this date to forever be A day of Thanksgiving for all European Christians .. Now listen, when you celebrate Thanksgiving What you are actually celebratin is the proclamation of the Pope of Rome Who later, in league with Queen Isabella sent Cardinal Ximenos to Spain to murder any blacks that resisted Christianity These Moors, these black men and women were from Baghdad, Turkey And today, you eat the turkey, for your Thanksgiving day as the European Powers destroyed the Turkeys Who were the forefathers of your mothers and fathers" [/ QUOTE ] Nope. In the United States, we recreate a feast that occurred in 1621. And where, exactly, is Baghdad, Turkey? F in History F in Geography F in songwriting. |

Is this a rap song? I hope so. I love to hear people that get their history lessons from rap songs. That's awesome.

I was just wondering about this...not like I take everything in this song as fact. If I did, I wouldn't have made this post. But anyways, the song is really good. |

One time in second grade we outlined our hands to make turkeys and celebrate Thanksgiving.
