🔴 🇺🇸 **The Real History of Squanto and Mayflower-Indian Relations**

Andrew Lipman

_“Those colonists are best known today as “Pilgrims,” a name they did not call themselves. Squanto, who was also known as Tisquantum, had been their translator for twenty months when he fell ill in November 1622. It had been two years since the Mayflower arrived on American shores and one year after the so-called First Thanksgiving, a diplomatic visit that was not actually a feast of thanksgiving.”_
