Minneapolis Changes "Columbus Day" To "Indigenous People's Day" - Valley News Live - KVLY/KXJB - Fargo/Grand Forks

(WCCO) It’s been debated for years, but now the city of Minneapolis has decided to change from celebrating Columbus Day to observing Indigenous People’s Day instead.

Columbus Day has been a federal holiday since 1937, though not all states observe it, including Alaska, Hawaii, Oregon, and South Dakota.

The day has long been a hot button issue over whether it is offensive to the American Indian culture to credit Christopher Columbus with the discovery of America.

On Friday, the Minneapolis City Council voted unanimously to approve the proposal to rename the day Indigenous People’s Day.

The designation would be observed on all city communications.

Hopefully more U.S. cities will do this. I unfortunately don't know much about the Native Americans and it honestly probably shouldn't be limited to a day, but you gotta start somewhere.
I'm sure the Fox News crowd will take issue with it though.

You don't have to study Christopher Columbus for very long to find out he was a massive a$$hole, cruel, and to a degree...quite incompetent.

So yeah, he shouldn't be celebrated for anything.
In my opinion.
