This year, Thanksgiving came at a time of great unrest in the black community. Thousands of protesters disrupted calm across the whole of America as they expressed significant dissatisfaction with the Ferguson grand jury decision against indictment for the officer who shot unarmed teen Michael Brown on Aug. 9. Since then, and especially in recent days, police brutality, wrongful deaths and injustice have blared on radio channels, TV stations and newspaper covers. But Thanksgiving is also a time that people come together with their loved ones and celebrate what they are thankful to have.
