How stupid. More Leftist dum-dum stuff.
It’s my understanding that there are no indigenous people to the United states. That they all came from somewhere else it’s just a matter of who got here first.
I am proud to celebrate Insidious People’s Day.
Glad to see South Carolina is still level headed about this silly shit.
Columbus was a visionary and devout Christian. Do real research and you will discover America… just like he did.
Stupid indeed now every holiday is Indigenous Day ?.
Yup.
I am indigenous. me and my family has been here about 400 years.
I find it fascinating that these indian tribes cannot tell us where their lands are. Those borders moved all the time as they did, yet, liberals want to claim they had nations that were took from them.
Why does it have to be Columbus Day?
Anyone live in “Main”? LOL
The indians slaughtered each other till the evil white man showed up.
Another vote for human sacrifice.
I guess they’d rather have Aztec temples, stare at the sun and do ritual human sacrifice… oh wait, they already do.

What a disrespectful name, “Indigenous”. I thought the point was to play up cultural heritage. Do American Indians want to celebrate being “Indigenous?”. No, if I were them, I would indignant about indigenous.
There’s a good reason the liberal northeast States (except Vermont and Maine) are not changing the Columbus Day name.
Have you ever seen Bernie Sanders attend a Little Italy event?
Yes, we must celebrate and commemorate twenty-thousand years of incessant tribal warfare, slavery, torture, human sacrifice, and a deep cultural and artistic heritage.
On the other hand, the Mayans were very good astronomers and they and the Aztecs and Incas were quite good builders.
What else should they be remembered for?
I was born here, am I an “indigenous people”? I certainly am a native American.
Columbus discovered a land that was already discovered. All he did was open the the door for the European conquest. The Viking colonies were there about 500 yrs earlier. Too bad the natives here didn’t like the milk they were given. The Vikings had to leave, their welcome was rescinded due to lactose intolerance. Columbus was financed by the gold greedy, Royalty and Church. And so the conquest began. Why do we consider it a holiday? He landed on an Island in the Caribbean not the main land. Let the Island celebrate it.
It would seem that the right thing to do would be for all woke folk of European descent to leave America. Also, Americans of African descent need to leave because they would not be here if it were not for Columbus' discovery. After all, Columbus is responsible for initiating European immigration to the Americas. In other words, wolk folk of European and African descent would not be here if it weren’t for Columbus' discovery of the New World! On second thought, all humans and invasive species from other continents need to leave America so only so-called indigenous people, animals and plants remain. Thinking this through a bit further -- if we go back far enough in time, we learn that no one is "indigenous" - except for Adam and Eve. Man, being the bi-pedal creature he is, likes to discover and move about. Hummmm!!! /s/
