Had 2 people unfriend me a couple years ago on Facebook for posting a photo of me eating Bangers & Mash on Columbus Day. Wasn’t celebrating; I just happened to have it for the first time on that day and posted a photo. People are too sensitive.
I had people unfollow me on Instagram for posting my nieces. Because they are parents and I'm not. Nothing disgusting about the pictures. Completely harmless. I did it before and they didn't care. People are losing their minds.

Columbus never set foot in North America. During four separate trips that started with the one in 1492, Columbus landed on various Caribbean islands that are now the Bahamas as well as the island later called Hispaniola. He also explored the Central and South American coasts.
Columbus Day was signed into law by President Benjamin Harrison in 1892 as a tribute and an act of forgiveness to the Italian immigrant community in response to the lynchings of 11 Italians that took place in New Orleans on March 14, 1891. To this day STILL the largest number of people ever lynched at one time in the United States. The Columbus Day holiday quickly became a great source of pride and a symbol of defiance for the Italian-American community against these horrific murders. To tear down a statue of Columbus is a slap in the face to Italian-Americans
President Benjamin Harrison did not sign Columbus Day into law. It was President Franklin Roosevelt that signed Columbus Day into law as an official U.S. holiday. President Harrison simply issued a proclamation to honor Columbus. But Harrison only did so because the Italian government was enraged about the lynchings, causing a diplomatic crisis between the two countries. Seeing a political opportunity, Harrison made the proclamation to get Italian American votes.
You are living on your historical land. Unlike Europeans, who occupied your land and committed atrocities against your ancestors. And they are honouring a man, who was doing his best to gеnосidе your people. Think about it again.
To honour the native Americans, statues of Columbus should be replaced with great native American heroes like Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse etc. Action speaks louder than words.
You mean the way people that aren't Christians celebrate Christmas (even though it's not technically a Christian holiday, before anyone wants to go left field on the point) and American people that aren't Irish celebrate St. Patrick's Day? Sure. People can celebrate anything they want.
Or that God does not actually exist except for as a concept alone, Jesus is not the son of God, is dead and is not coming back, is not the savior of anything, and 'sin' is just a human concoction? Do away with Christmas and Easter. Come up with different names for those holidays if the nation still wants to keep those holidays. Maybe for Christmas: Exploit the public for money day. Maybe for Easter: Exploit the public for clothes and money day.
For reference: (copy and paste from my files): GOD DOES NOT ACTUALLY EXIST EXCEPT FOR AS A CONCEPT: For those who claim God actually exists (besides as a concept), consider the following: a. An actual eternally existent absolute somethingness truly existing. b. An actual eternally existent absolute somethingness that has consciousness, memories and thoughts truly existing. People who claim God actually and eternally exists basically are claiming that 'b' above is correct but yet simultaneously seem to be saying that 'a' is impossible to occur. 'a' above can exist without 'b' existing but 'b' cannot exist unless 'a' exists. Even per the scientific principal of Occam's razor, 'a' is more probable of being really true rather than 'b'. I am one step away from proving God's existence, but am unable to find any actual evidence to do so. And nobody I've talked to seems to have any actual evidence of God's actual existence either. All humans appear to have are 'Theories of God'. Some humans appear to go their whole life basing their life upon their specific theory of God. Many give their God human characteristics and cannot even prove the existence of their God much less the characteristics given to their God. Some have circumstantial arguments for a God's existence, but others have circumstantial arguments for no God existing. Not one has any actual factual evidence that their God actually factually even exists. Hence, at this time in the analysis, God does not actually exist except for as a concept created by humans for humans. Humans have personified Nature and called that personification "God". Instead of what is claimed "God creating man in God's image", it's more likely that "Man created God in Man's image". Further consider that if the emotional parts of the brain override the logic and reasoning parts of the brain, people can be made to believe basically anything at all as being really true. Plus modern science has already proven that humans can have visual and audio hallucinations that are very real to that individual. All the more reason for critical thinking being needed and to follow the facts wherever those facts might lead. Some people for some reason (social conditioning/brainwashing/wishful thinking) believe in future eternity without end but do not accept eternity past with no beginning. In addition, while modern science does not know what consciousness actually is yet, memories and thoughts appear to require a physical correctly functioning brain to have those items occur. Where is God's brain? Where are God's memories stored at? How are God's memories stored and retrieved? How does God think even a single coherent thought? If inside of this space time dimension we appear are existing in, then where? If outside of this space time dimension we appear are existing in, then where is the interface between that dimension and this dimension? No such interface has been discovered as of yet as far as I am currently aware of. * Note: Since this is a search for the real absolute truth concerning God, Intelligent Designer, Pre-existent Consciousness, etc, feel free to copy and paste this elsewhere to further the analysis and discussion. * For those who claim God actually exists besides just as a concept, please prove that 'b' above is really true and that 'a' is not really true.
Also for reference: a. Modern science claims energy cannot be created nor destroyed, hence energy is eternally existent. b. An absolute somethingness cannot come from an absolute nothingness, so an absolute somethingness always existed, most probably being energy itself. c. Universe ALWAYS existed in some form and NEVER had a beginning, No Creator Needed. 'a' is true, is it not? 'b' is true, is it not? If 'a' and 'b' are true, then no creator is needed in 'c'. * Some people for some reason (social conditioning/brainwashing/wishful thinking) believe in future eternity without end but do not accept eternity past with no beginning.

We don't consume Italian pizza in America. It's as dumb as suggesting Chinese food is an authentic Chinese food. It's an Americanized sh*t version of it. It's an insult to offer American pizza to an Italian person.
Omfg people it was in fact made by Italian. It didn’t use tomato sauce and most of the time didn’t use cheese. It was literally just bread shaped so you can cut it easy with sauce on top. Just because it doesn’t look like what we have now doesn’t mean they didn’t make it
Some say white americans are true americans which in fact are European americans. You have mexican americans, Italian americans, asian americans and so on, so where is the country of white?! America is a place not a race, that is why the indigenous people ARE THE true native americans.
Using your logic, the only true Americans are the T Rex and the Velociraptor. America is great not because of our history, but because our future has the freedom to expand, because we have learned from our history.
I see it like this ... If you had a toxic mother or toxic father, would you stop celebrating your birthday? You celebrate yourself, in spite of the horrific realities of your life.. Columbus was the spark that 'conceived' us as a nation.And as a continent.. So yes, celebrate your 'Commanche- ness . But you will never erase the importance of Columbus, ,whether you hate him or not . I assure you I am a full blooded black American.
No, that's one of the stupidest question's that I've heard in my life. One celebrates a mass murderer, the other mourns and celebrates the indigenous people of America. One celebrates an exploiter, a monster and a genuinely evil man. The other is more reconcilatory, has frankly more substance to the holiday and celebrates people alive today and remembers the tragic losses of the past. Furthermore Columbus day never has anything actual nice happen, while indigenous people's day, people who celebrate it, use it as an actual get together and we eat food and other nice things.
I know someone with a Birthday on Christmas day. I celebrate both. And I know someone with a Birthday on Halloween . Same thing. That is just how it is.🎅🎃🎁🎂🎶
Tribes to this area? How far back did you go for that information? You knows those tribes wiped out other tribes as well for land......right? They also sacrificed children in hopes for more rain....what in the hell are you doing?
Majority of Americans don’t even know Columbus landed in Salvador Island Bahamas. Columbus Day is meant for Italian Americans who faced discrimination in 1900s …..
I’m Canadian and it’s the same crap here. We need to be more like Americans. Indigenous people are happy to take taxpayer money while moaning about how bad they’ve been treated. They treat each other like crap. Observed that first hand. Grifters.
Many Americans can’t handle truth. I am glad that finally Native Americans are being celebrated. This should long ago have been done. Along with many treaties broken by our very own government should have been honored and corrected
Right. Many American nowadays can’t handle the inconvenient truth that “native” tribes were constantly slaughtering each other and taking each other’s land. People ask as if these natives were all one peace loving group. And so it goes for all civilization throughout all of history….
There is no such thing as a native American. In fact America won't be here in millions of years. Who cares about people that occupied land before another group
Newsflash, there are 365 days in a year! Maybe they should pick a different day for indigenous people’s day! This is very disrespectful to Italian American. Pick a different day, folks.
Indigenous ? Look up the word. They're not indigenous. They arrived here at a certain point in time themselves...and did tremendous damage to the indigenous animals they found here. Celebrate if you want. This is America. And America got it's start when the Europeans arrived and not before.
Happy Columbus Day from someone with no traceable Italian or Spanish blood in their family history. Happy Indigenous People's Day from someone with no traceable Native American blood in their family history. Seriously though, having we already established that the first peoples to be called Native Americans emigrated here across the Bering Strait from what is now Northern Russia. They might better be called the First Peoples here in the US, just as they are in Canada. Indigenous should just mean the first people to live in a certain area, because we all came from somewhere else, going all the way back to the African continent, based upon available scientific evidence.
Not to make the claim that Columbus was a saint or anything, but: 1) The Native Americans were practicing slavery and taking each others land by force before Columbus or Leif Ericson arrived. 2) Columbus and the Spanish encountered native tribes here in North and Central America that were practicing cannibalism. How come no one condemns those practices? Columbus is said to be bad and need cancelling because he owned slaves and for what happened to the Native Americans during the colonization. But the natives were already doing the same thing, and some of them were EATING PEOPLE! I don't feel the need to cancel Columbus or the holiday. I feel the need to learn from history.
Lol, looks like all the colonizer descendents are the ones watching all these Indigenous People Day videos! Don’t hate! Congratulate! All the hate is literally overflowing from your hearts and out of your mouths, you really should just let it go, and learn from the mistakes of the past, it can only make you a better person for it.
@@blueduck9569 For the slower set, I'll explain the difference: Columbus Day is named in honor of an individual, one whose accomplishment is arguably the most important in human history. Whereas, IPD honors not an individual, nor even a nation, but rather an extremely broad demographic category for...just existing.
@@hlysnan6418 So... you don't know the story behind Columbus Day then? Columbus Day was thought up to placate italian americans who felt marginalized in their new found home within the United States. Literally a "participation trophy" for immigrants. 🤭
Indigenous peoples of America should definitely be acknowledged, recognized, respected, celebrated etc., but we should not erase the term " Columbus Day" from our heritage because he and his discoveries and all that comes with it are a part of our history. Without his arrival and Colonization etc. many of us would not have been born because the circumstances would not have existed to bring our parents together!
*"Many of us would not have been born because the circumstances would not have existed to bring our parents together!"* Really???? And without the arrival of Columbus, Marty would have never met Doc Brown and Lorainne would have never kissed George! Gee whiz dude, you couldn't come up with a more reasoned and intelligent assertion to defend Columbus Day???
@@pallen1157 How about this one: without Columbus Day, Italian-Americans would be up in arms at the loss of _their_ holiday, especially given that they were historically persecuted along the same lines as the Native Americans and other POC’s. And without Columbus, there would have likely been other explorers, such as Ferdinand Magellan, Amerigo Vespucci, and Giovanni da Verrazzano, who would have likely done the exact same thing, especially given how desperate the kingdoms inhabiting the Iberian Peninsula were for access to riches and spices thanks to the rise of the Ottoman Empire.
@@aycc-nbh7289 How about this one: Italians Americans would not have had a national holiday if President Roosevelt had not signed it into law. However, it was President Benjamin Harrison that initially issued the proclamation of Columbus Day. He did so to quell the diplomatic troubles between Italy and the U.S. caused the lynching and killings of Italian immigrants, particularly the lynchings in New Orleans in 1891.
@@kingstarscream3807 Thanks! Because I am quite "noble!" Not only am I noble, I'm also a realist, and I'm sensible and pragmatic. No one knows what "could have been", we only know [based on historic accounts] "what has been." Thus, people will judge history based on their own perspectives, ideals and/or biases. _"You literally wouldn't exist, along with everyone you know and love, yet you pass that off as a non-issue"_ To make it more clear to you I'll say this; The world and human life didn't stop because "YOU" were born, neither did the world and human life didn't "BEGIN" when you were born. Non-issues and issues of all types have always been part of life. Fact is that PEOPLE (aka; humans) will question, examine and explore said issues... which is exactly what we're doing now!

Only when American Indians publicly acknowledge that they too took land from other tribes will I begin to acknowledge the so-called Indigenous People’s day.

@@pugdad2555 LOL., Ill just laugh at the analogy of Aztecs and others “already had” modern hospitals and such ... unless you’re implying the surgical techniques of FLAYING the princesses of the other tribes they brutalized in their genocide, and wear their skin as clothing for fertility.. (wow!!!)
@Paulo S LOL... Thx... yep
Americans CAN celebrate anything they want to. In spite of the dems best efforts, it’s still currently a free country
Happy Columbus day everyone
🇺🇸🇮🇹 Thanks for the Italians for the pizza 🍕👍
Pizza was invented in China
@@moptop7575 Italian Americans invented the pizza we all know and love today.
We don't consume Italian pizza in America. It's as dumb as suggesting Chinese food is an authentic Chinese food. It's an Americanized sh*t version of it. It's an insult to offer American pizza to an Italian person.
@@moptop7575 Chinese didn't have tomatoes or cheese, how could they have invented pizza?
Omfg people it was in fact made by Italian. It didn’t use tomato sauce and most of the time didn’t use cheese. It was literally just bread shaped so you can cut it easy with sauce on top. Just because it doesn’t look like what we have now doesn’t mean they didn’t make it
We can't give one day to Italian Americans?
Does ABC give us permission?
Why Put “indigenous peoples day” on Columbus day? Hmmmm
0:01 That's a funny way of saying Columbus Day.
These are the people who gonna make America great again, not repo's.
Happy Columbus Day !!
Some say white americans are true americans which in fact are European americans. You have mexican americans, Italian americans, asian americans and so on, so where is the country of white?! America is a place not a race, that is why the indigenous people ARE THE true native americans.
Using your logic, the only true Americans are the T Rex and the Velociraptor. America is great not because of our history, but because our future has the freedom to expand, because we have learned from our history.
Bad idea putting that comment. You are gonna start an argument as well
I'm sorry but I'm happy this coming month is native American and indigenous month so I am proud to be one by blood.
Remember to keep comments respectful and follow our community guildeliness
Why not? It perfectly summarizes our split personality.
I see it like this ...
If you had a toxic mother or toxic father, would you stop celebrating your birthday?
You celebrate yourself, in spite of the horrific realities of your life..
Columbus was the spark that 'conceived' us as a nation.And as a continent..
So yes, celebrate your
'Commanche- ness .
But you will never erase the importance of Columbus, ,whether you hate him or not .
I assure you I am a full blooded black American.
No, that's one of the stupidest question's that I've heard in my life. One celebrates a mass murderer, the other mourns and celebrates the indigenous people of America.
One celebrates an exploiter, a monster and a genuinely evil man. The other is more reconcilatory, has frankly more substance to the holiday and celebrates people alive today and remembers the tragic losses of the past.
Furthermore Columbus day never has anything actual nice happen, while indigenous people's day, people who celebrate it, use it as an actual get together and we eat food and other nice things.
Happy Columbus Day to you
I can celebrate anything i want lol
Happy Indigenous People's Day!!
I know someone with a Birthday on Christmas day. I celebrate both. And I know someone with a Birthday on Halloween . Same thing.
That is just how it is.🎅🎃🎁🎂🎶
Excellent point!
Literally not the same.

Hey why didn't she send this message by smoke signal? Isn't using the internet cultural appropriation?
Happy Colombia day! Don’t let the natives ruin it
Short answer: Celebrate Columbus Day.
I mean, haven't we been celebrating it for years? Why is a problem all of a sudden?
Because it has been revealed Columbus gave his crew indigenous girls as payment and the most popular age was 9-13
oops, that was a secret
@@notmeus1968 Ah, so now I see why Columbus Day was cancelled. Joe Biden was jealous.
it's a problem when they're trying to change our history to fit their narrative
@@notmeus1968 Dont blow our cover!
Happy Columbus Day!
Tribes to this area? How far back did you go for that information? You knows those tribes wiped out other tribes as well for land......right? They also sacrificed children in hopes for more rain....what in the hell are you doing?
Appeal to authority fallacy.
Let's have a "professor" to tell you what to think.
We have been here before any zungus !!! Africa United for Ever
Enjoy your last days Zungus !!!
Why not?
Majority of Americans don’t even know Columbus landed in Salvador Island Bahamas. Columbus Day is meant for Italian Americans who faced discrimination in 1900s …..
Due away with Columbus Day Indians was living in America First
Absolutely
It’s Columbus Day!!
Groomer
I’m Canadian and it’s the same crap here. We need to be more like Americans. Indigenous people are happy to take taxpayer money while moaning about how bad they’ve been treated. They treat each other like crap. Observed that first hand. Grifters.
Yes
I'm celebrating Columbus Day for sure.
me 2
America has changed the who the indigenous are today.
Many Americans can’t handle truth. I am glad that finally Native Americans are being celebrated. This should long ago have been done. Along with many treaties broken by our very own government should have been honored and corrected
this comment smells of russia or china
No it’s the left that can’t handle truth. It’s Columbus Day not indigenous people day.
truth??? duh duh duh Columbus NEVER SET FOOT on North American Soil in his lifetime... duh duh duh
Right. Many American nowadays can’t handle the inconvenient truth that “native” tribes were constantly slaughtering each other and taking each other’s land.
People ask as if these natives were all one peace loving group.
And so it goes for all civilization throughout all of history….
There is no such thing as a native American. In fact America won't be here in millions of years. Who cares about people that occupied land before another group
Newsflash, there are 365 days in a year! Maybe they should pick a different day for indigenous people’s day! This is very disrespectful to Italian American. Pick a different day, folks.
Kumeyaay had wars with Byzantine 400 years before Columbus touched the east coast
Not one mention of Italian American heritage.. Sad
As long as Connecticut still calls it Columbus Day, that’s what I am celebrating.
Go back to Europe settler
Should indigenous people whose ancestors helped Europeans wage war against other indigenous people celebrate Indigenous People's Day?
HAPPY COLUMBUS DAY!
Hijacking Columbus Day is a poor way to expose opportunistic exploitation. Get you own holiday, don't steal someone else's.
Indigenous ? Look up the word. They're not indigenous. They arrived here at a certain point in time themselves...and did tremendous damage to the indigenous animals they found here. Celebrate if you want. This is America. And America got it's start when the Europeans arrived and not before.
Happy Columbus Day from someone with no traceable Italian or Spanish blood in their family history.
Happy Indigenous People's Day from someone with no traceable Native American blood in their family history.
Seriously though, having we already established that the first peoples to be called Native Americans emigrated here across the Bering Strait from what is now Northern Russia. They might better be called the First Peoples here in the US, just as they are in Canada. Indigenous should just mean the first people to live in a certain area, because we all came from somewhere else, going all the way back to the African continent, based upon available scientific evidence.
Are you serious?
The problem is that they were not the first people here.
@@TheChopf26 They were. Nobody else came here before them.
@@Csylve agreed..that statement doesn`t even qualify as pseudoscience
No, just happy Columbus day.
Native Americans should be the first honored on this day.
Make America Native Again.
Long live Colombus
@@Culturally_Hispanic Gaylumbus
Columbus didnt "discover" anything, but boy could he BS with the best of them.
he didn`t " discover " a place with 100,000,000 people living there ?
Happy Columbus Day everybody!!!
All republicunts support baby rapers like Columbus
I’m indigenous celebrate whatever you want
Not to make the claim that Columbus was a saint or anything, but:
1) The Native Americans were practicing slavery and taking each others land by force before Columbus or Leif Ericson arrived.
2) Columbus and the Spanish encountered native tribes here in North and Central America that were practicing cannibalism.
How come no one condemns those practices?
Columbus is said to be bad and need cancelling because he owned slaves and for what happened to the Native Americans during the colonization. But the natives were already doing the same thing, and some of them were EATING PEOPLE!
I don't feel the need to cancel Columbus or the holiday. I feel the need to learn from history.
Lol, looks like all the colonizer descendents are the ones watching all these Indigenous People Day videos! Don’t hate! Congratulate! All the hate is literally overflowing from your hearts and out of your mouths, you really should just let it go, and learn from the mistakes of the past, it can only make you a better person for it.
But what about those who are descendants of those who arrived with mere pennies and fought in a war to _end_ slavery?
I agree what ever you call it this county worker gets a day off.
Indigenous People's Day is just about the biggest "participation trophy" imaginable...
That's rich, considering the story behind Columbus Day becoming a federally recognized holiday.
@@blueduck9569 For the slower set, I'll explain the difference: Columbus Day is named in honor of an individual, one whose accomplishment is arguably the most important in human history. Whereas, IPD honors not an individual, nor even a nation, but rather an extremely broad demographic category for...just existing.
@@hlysnan6418 So... you don't know the story behind Columbus Day then? Columbus Day was thought up to placate italian americans who felt marginalized in their new found home within the United States. Literally a "participation trophy" for immigrants. 🤭
@@blueduck9569 You're a bit dim, aren't you? You clearly don't know what "participation trophy" means, nor the word "literally"...
The country of Colombia is named after Columbus……Mic drop…..
HAPPY COLUMBUS DAY AMERICA !!!
Indigenous peoples of America should definitely be acknowledged, recognized, respected, celebrated etc., but we should not erase the term
" Columbus Day" from our heritage because he and his discoveries and all that comes with it are a part of our history. Without his arrival and Colonization etc. many of us would not have been born because the circumstances would not have existed to bring our parents together!
*"Many of us would not have been born because the circumstances would not have existed to bring our parents together!"* Really???? And without the arrival of Columbus, Marty would have never met Doc Brown and Lorainne would have never kissed George! Gee whiz dude, you couldn't come up with a more reasoned and intelligent assertion to defend Columbus Day???
@@pallen1157 How about this one: without Columbus Day, Italian-Americans would be up in arms at the loss of _their_ holiday, especially given that they were historically persecuted along the same lines as the Native Americans and other POC’s.
And without Columbus, there would have likely been other explorers, such as Ferdinand Magellan, Amerigo Vespucci, and Giovanni da Verrazzano, who would have likely done the exact same thing, especially given how desperate the kingdoms inhabiting the Iberian Peninsula were for access to riches and spices thanks to the rise of the Ottoman Empire.
@@aycc-nbh7289 How about this one: Italians Americans would not have had a national holiday if President Roosevelt had not signed it into law. However, it was President Benjamin Harrison that initially issued the proclamation of Columbus Day. He did so to quell the diplomatic troubles between Italy and the U.S. caused the lynching and killings of Italian immigrants, particularly the lynchings in New Orleans in 1891.
@@pallen1157 You literally wouldn't exist, along with everyone you know and love, yet you pass that off as a non-issue. How noble of you.
@@kingstarscream3807 Thanks! Because I am quite "noble!" Not only am I noble, I'm also a realist, and I'm sensible and pragmatic. No one knows what "could have been", we only know [based on historic accounts] "what has been." Thus, people will judge history based on their own perspectives, ideals and/or biases.
_"You literally wouldn't exist, along with everyone you know and love, yet you pass that off as a non-issue"_
To make it more clear to you I'll say this; The world and human life didn't stop because "YOU" were born, neither did the world and human life didn't "BEGIN" when you were born. Non-issues and issues of all types have always been part of life. Fact is that PEOPLE (aka; humans) will question, examine and explore said issues... which is exactly what we're doing now! That shouldn't' be hard to understand.
They can but they shouldn't be on the same day
When Columbus encountered the Native Americans, that was the beginning of the unification of the world. That's what we are really celebrating.
This just in: Washington DC will now be renamed Washington DI.
I'm getting the hang of this bs Amerika calls history.
Natives Day, Indigenous Day, Columbus Day, Black Day or call it Indien Day.
It's really called Holy Father's Day and is a day for all Black People or you can say Indien Tribes to celebrate their Fathers.
You can call it Saint John Day but it's a day for all Multiracials to celebrate their Fathers l.
I am indigenous..i ❤ my culture my language my indigenous History...proud to be an indigenous....from India 🇮🇳
Tú eres de la India. Los Británicos los mataron de hambre desde el siglo XIX hasta 1943.
have you seen the movie Madres on Amazon prime? Have you seen the documentary of (No mas Bebes)? Did you make noise for the women who got raped in the Georgia detention center? Did you guyd make noise so they can win their case? The women who were getting their reproductive organs removed without consent or became sterilized without consent did you make noise? Or does the color of their skin play a factor for you not to care?
Everyone is Indigenous somewhere!
Um Columbus never hit that land ?? What are y’all taking about he was in Hispaniola
Happy indigenous day America it is more beautiful to say than Colombo's day.
When Colombo encountered the ingenuous people, that was the first time in history that all the people of the world were finally united. Happy World Unity Day!
Prefiero "Día de la Hispanidad".
@@magiceightballspotRight before he slaughtered them all
I don't care. I am a mixed breed thanks to Columbus. But I am also from indigenous background....
Why would I celebrate cannibals and people who couldn't get passed the Stone Age?
Only when American Indians publicly acknowledge that they too took land from other tribes will I begin to acknowledge the so-called Indigenous People’s day.
Time to get real! EVERY group of humans pushed weaker groups and tribes off coveted lands. Look what those Saintly people of Modern Israel did in recent years to their Arab neighbors (who were actually cousins if you go by the bible).
Happy Virtue Signaling Day!
Haha! How true!
To honour the native Americans, statues of Columbus should be replaced with great native American heroes like Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse etc.
Action speaks louder than words.
Indigenous People's Day has too many syllables. Columbus Day is easier Meanwhile, if you're so concerned about the mistreatment of Indigenous Americans, do something about the inhuman conditions on western reservations
Native American suicided 3:50
What do you expect? The USA government and United Nations doesn’t recognize Navajo Nation or other indigenous lands as a country. They were given casinos as reparation but they still live soooo far from civilizations. Visit Arizona if you wanna learn more
🎉HAPPY COLUMBUS DAY🎉

Yes! As good "Americans', we will celebrate it!
At the same time? Only if they're okay with the extreme cognitive dissonance.
Columbus was awesome.
The Indians should be thankful, he gave them the wheel.
