“We are sending a signal across the nation and to the global community that we make these changes in the spirit of truth-telling,” Council Member Alondra Cano said ahead of the Council meeting.
“Now that we have established Indigenous People's Day, every child -- whether that child is native or whether that child is not -- will learn the truth about where America really comes from," added U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison.

He wishes he did the paperwork. That's why he's not given credit. Kinda like how some inventions were developed earlier by others, but someone else gets the credit. If you don't market and put your endeavors or journeys on official papers—no one ever knows about them.
Lief was a dumb Scandinavian or a dumb Viking, whichever you prefer. [Reply]

It's not their country anymore, and never really was, they were savage nomads... And some no-fighting dudes too! They got their asses kicked by people who had to float across the pond to come put them on reservations.
But hey, they at least have reservations!
Now they need to just shut up and drink their fire water... [Reply]

As usual, you failed another history lesson. Indians were notorious sellouts to their own people as Manifest Destiny rolled westward.

Sorry to interrupt Pube whining about a useless holiday but you guys need to pay attention. Obviously this is a ANTIFA/BLM spy and was present for the burnings of the cities you guys talk about endlessly.
I fully expect the proper amount of anger here.
Unless Trumpers don't care about cities. That's not possible of course, since we know how they respect LEOs after the fine way they treated them on Jan. 6th. [Reply]
