A Sicha of the Rebbe, delivered on the 19th of Kislev, 5745 (1984), in which he gives the Jewish perspective on Thanksgiving, and its connection to Yud Tes Kislev and Chanukah.
Chassidus teaches us that ultimately, “a Jewish view” on anything, even though on the surface it seems to contradict another one, ultimately derives from the same singular source (חכמתו ורצונו של הקב”ה), and thus both are but different expressions of “the Jewish view” on the subject.

Anyone know if this is printed anywhere? I can’t find it either in Likutei Sichos or Sefer haSichos.

The Rebbe didn’t provide “THE” Jewish view of Thanksgiving; or anything for that matter.
He provided “A” Jewish view.
