Columbus Day, which is celebrated annually on the second Monday of October to honor the Italian explorer credited with “discovering” the Americas, has always been somewhat of a controversial holiday. That’s because while Christopher Columbus stumbled upon what we now call the Caribbean on October 12, 1492, he never set foot on the mainland – even on his subsequent three journeys. Besides, North America had already been “discovered” by the Native Americans, who had been living there for many generations.

raven772약 7년I’m happy people decide dead to get rid of Columbus Day. What are we celebrating for? Yay he brought smallpox to the native Americans.- A Guy약 7년alright so I think that killing indigenous people is wrong but without Christopher Columbus colonizing America there wouldn't be a USA, The Greatest country in the World. So therefore. Columbus day should be called Columbus Day
