The idea of replacing Columbus Day with a day celebrating the indigenous people of North America 6

Quote:
Indigenous Peoples' Day
The idea of replacing Columbus Day with a day celebrating the indigenous people of North America first arose in 1977 from the International Conference on Discrimination Against Indigenous Populations in the Americas, sponsored by the United Nations in Geneva, Switzerland. At the First Continental Conference on 500 Years of Indian Resistance in Quito, Ecuador, in July 1990, representatives of Indian groups throughout the Americas agreed that they would mark 1992, the 500th anniversary of the first of the voyages of Christopher Columbus, as a day to promote "continental unity" and "liberation."
. . .
In 1992, the group convinced the city council of Berkeley, California, to declare October 12, a "Day of Solidarity with Indigenous People", and 1992 the "Year of Indigenous People", and to implement related programs in schools, libraries, and museums. The city symbolically renamed Columbus Day to "Indigenous Peoples' Day" beginning in 1992 to protest the historical conquest of North America by Europeans, and to call attention to the demise of Native American people and culture through disease, warfare, massacre, and forced assimilation. Performances were scheduled that day for Get Lost (Again) Columbus, an opera by a Native-American composer. Berkeley has celebrated Indigenous Peoples' Day ever since. Beginning in 1993, Berkeley has held an annual pow wow and festival on the day.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indigenous_Peoples'_Day
What do you think of the idea of re-remembering Christopher's brutal dismembering of Native American people? Is the attempt to disempower the memory of Columbus relatable to the removal of the Confederate flag from institution?

From what I've heard about Columbus' conquest, it doesn't sound like anything worthy of celebration.

I see no problem with designating a day like that. OTOH, you can't blame Columbus for everything that happened afterward.
BTW, his real name was cristobal colon which was "translated" into christopher Columbus. Who ever heard of a Spaniard named Christopher?

Stonehenge, Columbus is PERSONALLY responsible for the death, enslavement and maiming of several hundred native americans.
PERSONALLY.

Things were alot different back then i mean colombus was a real go getter he helped europeans get a strong foothold in the americas by doing what needed to be done. Go back and read some of the shit that actually happened n ull have a much deeper understanding for why he did what he did. colomus was atually a really great man. He was one of mankinds greatest expolorers an extremely brave and skilled sailor . He was extremely loyal to his people and family. he was actually pretty nice to the natives that didnt try to cut his head off. Hes a very important part of human history and deserves to be remembered.

It's a celebration of conquest and a new beginning, not the scrutiny of how it was accomplished.
It's easy to sit here in 2015 and judge history, taking over a occupied territory is never pretty.

Umm I wonder.. Why not consider the native Americans an equal trading partner, recognizing their right to their homeland and setting up diplomatic ties?
You're saying "robbing a people of their land is never pretty" You. Don't. Have. To.
If I visit people in their home I dont enslave and kill them. It doesnt occur to me.

Didn't the dutch do a lot of enslaving and conquesting? Hmmmmm?
If the natives here had attacked the settlers from the beginning they could have kept them away for a long time. Simply driving away the game and destroying their crops at night will do the job. Plus shooting arrows at hunting parties, a few flaming arrows shot at the huts at night, etc.
The natives were too divided to present a united front against the invaders. Sort of like the situation today.

One of the many things Columbus brought back with him was the first documented case of syphilis in Europe.
If that doesn't scream "Hey I just raped countless women!"
I don't know what does.

Fuck that shit.
Columbus Day is about eating lasagna, eggplant parmigiana, chicken parmigiana, veal parmigiana, breaded and fried steak, Utica Greens, and getting drunk.

edit: No I did not bother reading this thread.
-------------------- m00nshine is currently vacationing in Maui. Rumor has it he got rolled by drunken natives and is currently prostituting himself in order to pay for airfare back to the mainland but he's having trouble juggling a hairon addiction. He won't be back for a long while.

That is because he lost. If he won, there would be. And if the American Indians were able to repel the European invaders into the sea they would celebrate that too.
I'm not justifying Columbus day though, its disgusting as most remembrances are.

Celebrating conquest without scrutiny is absolutely a bad idea. It's unacceptable, even if it happened five hundred years ago.
