Jamal Hinton and Wanda Dench are celebrating a decade of Thanksgiving together, a tradition that began with a viral mistake. Ten years ago, Dench accidentally sent a text invitation to Hinton, thinking she was inviting her grandson to dinner. What followed was a heartwarming exchange that led to an annual tradition of sharing the holiday. Since that first unexpected dinner, their bond has become a symbol of kindness and connection in a time when stories of division often dominate the headlines.
