Kinda tired of celebrating genocide every year, so let's imagine a world where you can replace the yearly genocide party with something else. What would you replace it with? What would you call it?

Thanksgiving.

No seriously, the who BS thing with the Indians and pilgrims was tacked on later. It was just a regular Christian festival time that was observed in New England before that. It's just a day to have a big fancy feast with your family.

Just make it a harvest festival. Pretty much every culture since farming was invented has had one of those. No genocide whitewashing necessary.
