Besides, North America had already been “discovered” by the Native Americans, who had been living there for many generations.

vibetokilybicy7년 이하I think that it should be changed to either 'Indigenous peoples day' or 'Italian Heritage day' because many people have put shame and cruelty on the Italians name for this and it is a very sad thing that they have to take the blame when they are innocent for this murderess crime.- cat person7년 이하Columbus is a bad person and he killed yes KILLED what he thought were people from INDIA so he is a bad person so we should change it to Indian day (because COLUMBUS IS A BAD PERSON!)
