Jackye and Katee head to the Beach (virtually) to get our vacation vibes rolling! We are talking about HR folks who want their employees to share EVERYTHING! We think employees should decide what they share and what not to share in regards to work from home. Do cameras need to be turned on or should folks just need to get the work done? We'll tell you our thoughts on the matter.

In this episode, Jackye and Katee share some of their holiday food traditions. Between tales of Ritz crackers, sauerkraut and a debate on whether marshmallows belong on sweet potatoes (or not), this episode will leave you hungry for more!
*We recognize that the Thanksgiving holiday is problematic. Our conversation in this episode is focused on the diversity of our traditions and foods at the holidays and is not meant to erase the harm that has been done to Indigenous peoples. In truth, massacres, disease and American Indian tribal politics are what shaped the Pilgrim-Indian alliance at the root of the holiday.
Thousands of years before the 'official' Thanksgiving Day was proclaimed by Governor Winthrop of the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1637, North American Indigenous people across the continent had celebrated seasons of Thanksgiving. 'Thanksgiving' is a very ancient concept to American Indian nations.
The big problem with the American Thanksgiving holiday is its false association with American Indian people; the infamous 'Indians and pilgrims' myth. It is good to celebrate Thanksgiving, to be thankful for your blessings. It is not good to distort history, to falsely portray the origin of this holiday and lie about the truth of its actual inception.
