AceShowbiz - Cher has always been known as an outspoken public figure. She doesn't hesitate to voice her opinion about things on social media, including sharing why she is against Thanksgiving and it has something to do with the fact that its emergence is from the genocide of Native Americans.
Back in 2013, the music icon responded to a fan's question on Twitter about why she didn't celebrate the holiday. "4 me & my Family, it's a day, When every1 is free 4Diner & a movie, Not 2 celebrate the beginning of a GREAT crime," she wrote, before elaborating, "Stealing Land,from a ppl,Who believed,Owning LAND Was LIke Owning SKY! We gave them Blankets laced w/Smallpox."
