    DC changes Columbus Day to Indigenous Peoples’ Day
    Posted: 09 Oct 2019 05:33 PM PDT


    DAILYKENN.com -- For countless millennia, the Western Hemisphere was largely a wilderness. While denizens in what is now South America and Mexico accomplished a measure of civilization, those north of Mexico expended untold generations barely surviving beyond a paleolithic existence.  

    Then came Christopher Columbus. 

    North America today is a technological wonderland, a real-life Wakanda where innovation has enhanced the lives of virtually every human on earth. 

    Gratitude to Columbus, however, is waning. Americans are duped into believing America's natives were oppressed by the arrival of the white tribe from across the Atlantic. In reality, the opposite is true. 

    Nonetheless, cultural Marxism's cult-like mindset is so embedded in our thinking that some jurisdictions are foolish enough to displace honor for Columbus and refocusing on so-called "indigenous people" — cultural Marxism's neologism for Indians. 

    That's not to say America's aboriginals should be overlooked. Some were, in fact, significant leaders who contributed to our national identity. 

    Pocahontas allegedly saved the life of Jamestown colonist John Smith after he was captured by savages and slated for execution. Smith established the nation's first permanent colony. 

    Stand Waite was the chief of the Cherokee nation when the American cινιℓ ωαr erupted. Waite and the Cherokees fought in defense of the Confederacy. He was made a general and became the last Confederate field general to surrender at the war's end. 

    Indians introduced Europeans to corn, "a cereal grain first domesticated by indigenous peoples in southern Mexico about 10,000 years ago." The Europeans tapped into their aptitude for innovation and created corn syrup, a staple food component that helps feed the world.

    Marxist are hell-bent on destroying Western culture by destroying our sense of identity by erasing our past and minimizing our contributions to humanity. 

    A part of that genocide was seen when the city council in Washington, DC, voted to end Columbus Day and replace it with Indigenous Peoples Day.

    Columbus Day was first celebrated in New York in 1792, the 300th anniversary of Columbus’s voyage. A century later, Congress designated Columbus Day a national holiday to be celebrated each October 12; and, in 1971, Columbus Day became a federal holiday observed on the second Monday of October. Throughout the years, Italian-Americans, Hispanics, and other groups have embraced the holiday as an occasion to celebrate -- and commemorate -- their culture and ethnic heritage.

    ...

    Columbus has become a controversial figure. That controversy – many times fanned by political winds -- has tarnished the seafarer’s reputation. Many proudly proclaim that Columbus was a visionary who opened up a new land of opportunity for the oppressed masses of Europe. Others view Columbus with a jaundiced eye; specifically, they see him as an avaricious opportunist who massacred and spread disease among the indigenous people and institutionalized the slave trade in the Western Hemisphere. Without doubt, there are those who would like to see Columbus erased from the annals of history.

    • What little the NYC public schools teach about Columbus is ridiculous.  One is supposed to believe he single-handedly wiped out millions of advanced, peacefully co-existing indigenous populations on two continents, using only a dozen or so conscripted men armed with swords and carrying smallpox germs.    It almost sounds like one of the miraculous battles of the Old Testament wherein God had Joshua and a few troops marching around with gourds or Gideon directing the people to shout, “The sword of the Lord and Gideon!”  In light of these stories, would not Columbus be some sort of superhero?  
    And why would one name a holiday for him, since he was such a scoundrel?  Wouldn’t this be like the United States celebrating Osama bin Laden Day on September 11th?  Or Emperor Hirohito Day on December 6th?
    Common sense is lacking and the sad thing is that nobody seems to notice!

    • Not only DC.  According to my self-popluated Apple calendar, it's also "Indigenous Peoples' Day."

    • Cognative Dissonance - the state of having inconsistent thoughts, beliefs, or attitudes, especially as relating to behavioral decisions and attitude change.
    .
    Communists/Marxists/Liberals hold so many hypocritical ideals it's not even funny, with immigration being a top one.  On Columbus Day, they champion the indigenous peoples of America and trash Columbus for coming to a new country (i.e. he was an immigrant).  Tomorrow (or even later today), they will go back to cheering on immigrant's rights over the indigenous people of the US.  Diabolical disorientation.

    It's true that Native Siberians (they originally came from Siberia, they're not really native to America) butchered each other all the way up until arrival of Europeans and the settlement of the Americas.

    But in the year 2015 (the latest baby murder stats I could find), white women murdered just shy of 125,000 of their own babies. Europeans ain't doing anything better in regard to protecting life.

    • They don’t like Christopher Columbus because he is Catholic.
