Happy Thanksgiving
This Thanksgiving, as we come together to appreciate the blessings in our lives, let’s also think about the strength of unity and resilience.
For the Tamil community, Thanksgiving closely aligns with the essence of Pongal, our traditional harvest festival. While Thanksgiving recognizes the richness of the harvest and the blessings in our lives, Pongal expresses gratitude towards nature, the Sun, and the livestock that support us. Both celebrations highlight the value of family, togetherness, and appreciating what we have.
And as we enjoy the day, let’s embrace one of America’s great traditions—watching the NFL! Whether you’re cheering for your favorite team or simply soaking in the excitement, let the joy of the game add to the festive spirit.
May this season inspire us to support one another, advocate for justice, and work towards a brighter future for Tamils everywhere.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your loved ones!
Warm wishes,
