Some American cities abolish Columbus Day
Following a growing trend, the city council of Albuquerque, New Mexico has voted six to three to recognize October 12th β typically known to mostΒ as βColumbus Dayβ within the USAβ as Indigenous Peoplesβ day in a new proclamation. Albuquerque has the highest concentration of Indigenous people in New Mexico.
In the past two months, eight cities got rid of Columbus Day in favor of adopting Indigenous Peoplesβ Day. Three of those cities adopted Indigenous Peoplesβ Day this week.
Here are the names of those 8 cities:
Albuquerque (New Mexico), Lawrence (KS), Portland (OR), St. Paul (MN), Bexar County (TX), Anadarko (OK), Olympia (WA), Alpena (MI).
These cities areΒ following in the footsteps ofΒ Seattle andΒ Minneapolis.
Meanwhile,Β Oklahoma CityΒ came close to passing it in September and will try to pass it again on October 13th, the day after the holiday.
This name change isΒ a fantastic trend that needs to grow fast, but it needs to be followed up by concrete action and legislation. Nationwide (and worldwide β particularlyΒ in Latin American countries that have suffered from US-backed coups), indigenous people suffer from economic inequality, health problems, and human rights abuses. Itβs time we celebrate their culture and tradition rather than their oppressorsβ, and itβs time we give back to those weβve taken so much from.
