Make a meal on your menu gluten free and service it to those who NEED it first. Having zero meal options isn’t kind.

Did you know that a Canadian helped create the modern day US Special Forces?

He was Indigenous, a war hero, and a survivor of Canada’s residential school system.

This is the story of the most badass war hero you’ve never heard of.

A Goodable Thread. 🧵
