Recognizing Columbus Day and Indigenous Peoples' Day
| Today millions of Americans around the country recognize and celebrate Columbus Day and Indigenous Peoples’ Day. Indigenous Peoples’ Day honors and recognizes the invaluable contributions, histories, and resilience of Native communities. This day also offers us the opportunity to reflect on the persisting violence inflicted on Native people and policies that sought to eradicate or assimilate them for generations. In October 2021, President Biden became the first U.S. President to formally recognize the holiday by signing a presidential proclamation declaring October 11, 2021, to be a national holiday.
"On Indigenous Peoples’ Day, we honor the sovereignty, resilience, and immense contributions that Native Americans have made to the world; and we recommit to upholding our solemn trust and treaty responsibilities to Tribal Nations, strengthening our Nation-to-Nation ties."
