The native Americans turned the revolutionary war around. The American Indian have fought all wars since.

Finally.

why do they need a day and/or couldnt they have picked another date?

Viva la Columbus!

School calendar still said Columbus day

HOW NATIVE AMERICAN ALLOW THIS…

Happy Leif Erikson Day

I prefer IndigenousPeoplesDay over the current Columbus day. Time for a change.

Lol great article title

That damn Columbus means nothing in the USA but an imposter claiming what already had owners, the Native Americans and Mexican Indians were here first so why does everything close in honor of that Columbus B.S.

I’m disappointed in the American people I never thought there was so much hate for the native American Indians I mean think about it they only make up about 2% of the population what possible harm could they possibly Be doing to generate this much hate?

How can you say that Columbus discovered America when there were as many as 100 million people here? It's all part of the Doctrine of Discovery.

It's about time! Good for President Biden and good for the real Founding Fathers and Founding Mothers if this country.

Happy Columbus Day.

Stupid and the 5 civilized tribes follow their elders foot steps into the trap typical , if would of sided with the Comache this wouldn't even be a thing ,,but they all hunted my people for money believing the propaganda ,foh 😡

KHayhoe The whole point of Columbus Day, originally, was a counter-move against the KKK. K of C pamphlets in 20’s/30’s were anti-racist. That it became exclusively an Italian-American hero day was a later development. Get the day back to its roots & re-name it Indigenous People’s Day.

StopLine3

sjlnlgl5451 Nah, that assumes Biden was elected. We all know that was rigged. Happy Columbus Day.

Happy Columbus Day

He is NOT the president!

Idk care what they call it. For the rest of my life it’ll just be another fucking Monday

It's still Columbus day. I don't understand, because of this Columbus this country is possible. The people cry about how wrong that are, get to live in the greatest country ever... And they are trashing it? Must be nice to have the freedom.

Why a day already celebrated for another? It just seems far too petty.

Come off it! Biden has no idea what day of the week it is, never mind what daily wokery the virtue signallers have attached themselves to.

America but it means is that the Native Americans were here first. This does not take away from “Columbus. Without Columbus there would have not been America we must remember that. President Joe Biden realizes Native Americans and the Italian Americans.

Yes !!!

Great. It's still a federal holiday. Had Illinois state offices been open today, I could have accomplished some work.

Pay reparations. Oh wait, their ancestors got paid AND they got to hear the good news of Jesus Christ. Nothing in this world is as important as what awaits after you pass.

Let’s go Brandon!

About time! You can only learn from the past if you study real history. Their culture was/is incredibly rich, the loss of their knowledge and history a tragedy.

He doesn’t actually recognize anything. The declaration of the made-up nonsense is placed under his pen by his puppeteers.

puzzled_yet Happy Columbus Day Fuck Indigenous

Columbus did not discover American. Columba’s discovered an opportunity to conquer America with ethnic cleansing.

So what?

AngelaDavisMPR President Biden needs to StopLine3.

MoveOn About time!!

Not even sure why Christophero Colombo (Yes that's Columbus real name) is celebrated. North and South America were named after Amerigo Vespucci...

katiecouric IndigenousPeoplesDay highlights some needed truths that have been omitted from history and our own consciousness. Indigenous (Iroquois) ppl form of governance contributed to formulation of 🇺🇸Constitution Education Facts

Happy COLUMBUS Day!!!

Erase Columbus from all history books

I'm part native, so let me take a guess at it. People who were 400 years behind when the 'new world' came over?
