Yes, I have heard of a couple of alternative holidays to Thanksgiving, including the day of mourning and an indigenous person's day much like the one celebrated on what has been known as Columbus day.

Today I've been wishing people "Happy Questionable Origin But A Good Chance To Practice Gratitude Day"

It is, though, one of the only times I get to see my family...which I am quite thankful for


Of course, Ros! And if that's how you celebrate the holiday then more power to you! I'm not trying to convince people to leave their existing traditions, but I would hope that the thought at least crosses their minds that this comes at the cost of hundreds of thousnds of lives.
