It was started as a way to combat Columbus day.
As indigenous voices actually started to be listened to in some capacity in the US, vocal advocates explained "hey, fuck columbus day. We never celebrated it as a family and I think it's fucked that my children have to learn about their oppressor as a hero at school"
And schools listened. And cities listened to the schools. And states have started to listen to the cities.
Indigenous People's Day is taking over Columbus day.
It being today is an active sign that resistance does work, people are listening, and we can change things bit by bit by sticking with it and refusing to budge.
: Indigenous Terror @magicalmilly@elekk.xyzOne day Columbus day will be an artefact of the past that is only on calendars as a historic footnote.
And instead indigenous peoples day will reign supreme.
Land back motherfuckers.
: Indigenous Terror @magicalmillyIndigenous People's Day is like a reverse colonization, if that were possible.
taking over that shitty colonizer's history to instead celebrate that we survived. fuck his attempts at genocide, we lived, bitch.
