What is the history behind the holiday Thanksgiving?

Thanksgiving traces back to a harvest feast shared by Plymouth colonists and the Wampanoag people, a tradition that evolved from colonial harvest celebrations into a national holiday proclaimed by Abraham Lincoln in 1863. Today, it is a holiday centered on family, food, and expressing gratitude, though its origins are viewed differently by many, including as a day of mourning for some Native Americans due to the history of colonial conflict.
