Harvest Ceremony BEYOND THE THANK~GIVING MYTH - a study guide ­ Harvest Ceremony BEYOND THE THANKSGIVING MYTH Summary: Native American people who first encountered the “pilgrims” at what is now Plymouth, Massachusetts play a major role in the imagination of American people today. Contemporary celebrations of the Thanksgiving holiday focus on the idea that the “first Thanksgiving” was a friendly gathering of two disparate groups—or even neighbors—who shared a meal and lived harmoniously. In actuality, the assembly of these people had much more to do with political alliances, diplomacy, and an effort at rarely achieved, temporary peaceful coexistence. Although Native American people have always given thanks for the world around them, the Thanksgiving celebrated today is more a combination of Puritan religious practices and the European festival called Harvest Home, which then grew to encompass Native foods. The First People families, but a woman could inherit the position if there was no male heir. A sachem could be usurped by In 1620, the area from Narragansett Bay someone belonging to a sachem family who was able in eastern Rhode Island to the Atlantic Ocean in to garner the allegiance of enough people.

Researchers have struggled to classify “pilgrims” and “tourists” because these groups overlap to a large extent in terms of their identities while participating in religious activities/sightseeing. To achieve sustainable tourism development for the region with rich religious and cultural characteristics, the present article outlines a process for analyzing the motivation of participants attending religious festival of Mazu in Taiwan and then classifies religious festival participants according to their motivations. Using cluster sampling, a total of 280 responses were obtained and analyzed. The results revealed four different motivation categories: Fun traveler, devout believer, cultural enthusiast, and religious pragmatist. The study concludes that while festivalgoers are influenced by secularization to some extent, the original doctrine of the religion epitomized in the festivals fundamentally retains the essence and spirit of its religious rituals. The findings may have a significant value for the development of religious tourism marketing as it offers a foundation for future research seeking to develop regional cultural and religious sightseeing attractions sustainably.

  • Block Party Festival Planning and Ideas Toolkit
    Block Party Festival Planning and Ideas Toolkit So you are going to host or join a block party… Congratulations! You don’t have to live on a block of single family homes to hold a block party; people in apartments and condos have them too! This tool kit offers tips and suggestions on how to make your party a smooth running success. You may decide to simply close your street to traffic and sip lemonade in the sun, or you may want to hold a parade, dance lessons and a fashion show…from the most simple to the most elaborate, it’s your call! Details you should discuss ahead of time: Setting the stage for success Planning ahead and getting others to share in the work are the keys to a successful party. ● Gather as many neighbours as possible and divide up the tasks: advertising, setup, helping out the elderly and/or disabled, coordinating food, security, dealing with vehicles, clean up, removal of barricades and furniture. Make a list of all the things that need to be done and have people sign on. ● Include everybody in the planning! Children, seniors, members of minority groups, people who speak different languages, people with disabilities, neighbourhood churches and so on. By far the best way to get people involved is to ask them directly. ● Decide on a possible theme for the block party. ● Think of an alternate plan in case of poor weather. You might want to track down some folding tents – perhaps from a local organisation or school – just in case you want to hold some activities under shelter.

  • UCL Urban Migration Film Festival and Symposium Summary Report
    UCL Urban Migration Film Festival and Symposium summary report This report summarises the discussions which took place at the 2012 UCL Urban Migration Film Festival and Symposium. A gathering of participants from a range of backgrounds in academic and practice-related fields of migration and film studies as well as many students and the general public took part in the event on 15th February 2012. The festival was held in three sessions with a lunchtime screening of two complete films (see Appendix 1). Each session was followed by a panel of experts from anthropology, film studies, art history, migration studies and more (see Appendix 2). Migration film research was undertaken in preparation for the event by Laura Vaughan, Searle Kochberg, Rastko Novakovic and Sonia Arbaci for the UCL Environment Institute, who funded the event1. The following report is a distillation of the day’s discussions by the research team. It should not be read as necessarily replicating the views of the panellists. Introduction If you were to pick up any daily newspaper or indeed any academic paper on the subject of migration, you would be forgiven if you were to get the impression that migration is all about statistics, or perhaps policy – a subject to be dealt with by planners, politicians or administrators. And it is true to say that ultimately it is the decision makers of all sorts who shape the subject of migrants and the environment within which they live and work. And yet to really get to grips with this subject we need to disrupt the standard tracks of thinking and this is what this event is about.
