I dont think yhe holiday should exist. Just as in nursing, practices should not continue simply because of habit. ... evidence based care... and we should not celebrate this man.

I wasn't taught very much Indigenous history in school, which was disappointing. We owe First People a lot, especially after how the government has treated them in the past. States have started doing this on their own, and it needs to be done nationally. Columbus was a racist murderer, so why celebrate him?

I have been wondering why Columbus is held in such high esteem knowing all the atrocities he committed. What a dick.

Its wild that we still get a day off for this guy. History books need to get real about what actually went down.
