Hey Guys, Let me just say, I went through hell to get this video up lol. My computer charger died so I filmed this on my iPad and uploaded it using the youtube mobile app. Talk about time-consuming. This is just my quick $0.02 on some of the controversy swirling around Indigenous Peoples Day aka Christopher Columbus Day. 16 states have already changed the title of the official holiday, refusing to honor Columbus, whom they consider a mass murderer. Those critical of this tend to fall into three camps, which I outline here, along with my own opinions on why the day should be recognized as Indigenous Peoples Day on a national level. Thanks for watching!
