Columbus Day
-
a day that our government has deemed worthy of remembrance.
-
But with all due respect
-
with all due respect
-
with all due respect
-
there's an ugly truth that has been overlooked.
-
For way too long.
-
Columbus committed heinous crimes
-
against the Indigenous peoples of the Caribbean
-
and millions of natives throughout the americas
-
and Columbus set the stage for the slave trade in the new world.
-
So please
-
please reconsider
-
if this is a man you want to honour.
-
Reconsider if you wanna celebrate the crimes of Columbus.
-
It's not your fault.
-
It happened a long time ago.
-
But remaining neutral?
-
And pretending like it didn't happen?
-
Or that it doesn't still impact us today?
-
So please
-
take the day to learn the whole story.
-
Celebrate the people who were here first.
-
Petition for a nationally recognized Indigenous holiday.
-
So please
-
reconsider the story of Columbus.
