We are Chicago high school juniors who believe Columbus Day should be changed to Indigenous Peoples Day. Check out our U.S. History Honors project.

An excellent story about the attempted cultural genocide that was the residential school system in Canada. Reading it in the U.S. where 10 states have decided to celebrate today as Indigenous Peoples’ Day, instead of Columbus Day. https://t.co/0Q4MEqwoul 1/2 https://t.co/jv4dA8vYc7
