Thanksgiving is next week and you know what that means: Time for Hollywood to bash the holiday as racist! So, of course, ABC’s Fresh Off the Boat made some digs at America during Tuesday night’s episode “No Thanks-giving.” (http://forums.previously.tv/topic/50589-s03e05-no-thanks-giving/?do=getLastComment)

Jessica Huang (Constance Wu) has decided she is done with celebrating Thanksgiving because it is not her people’s tradition. She demonstrates this by pointing out the family’s ancestors are not in a Thanksgiving painting – but they will be eventually buried in America “underneath the railroad tracks that they built with no food or water.” She wants Louis (Randall Park) to keep their restaurant open on Thanksgiving so they can make money off of the holiday instead.
