Columbus Day is celebrated every year on the second Monday in October. In 2025, it falls on October 13. The holiday marks Christopher Columbus’s arrival in the Americas on October 12, 1492. But critics have long questioned whether the Italian explorer should be celebrated. They assert that his arrival led to the colonization and mistreatment of Native Americans.

animaidocter133달Wow 1492 wow that's crazy but maybe we can have it both like some people have it Columbus Day and some people have it Indigenous people day
bigthumpywumpy3달I personally think both should be real, just Indigenous Peoples' Day should be on a different day than Columbus Day, since both have important cultural and political importance.
milkfanforever3달Why do they have to be on the same day. it is kind of an insult to anyone who thinks either it should be columbus day or indigenous people's day

- hovogatysujy3달he wasn't the first to find America.
- bigthumpywumpy3달I think they are saying Columbus was the main colonizer and founder of the US, since he gave Europe the information of America.
