Many US universities do as do some Latin American nations (Dìa de la Raza or Day of the Race). And Alaska, Hawaii, Oregon and South Dakota have officially replaced Columbus Day with Indigenous Peoples Day, as have cities like Denver, Phoenix and Los Angeles.<br />But up here in Canada, its Thanksgiving and I had TURKEY!!!<br />Purrs<br />MarvAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6130826477942021081.post-62848863333783483142017-10-10T14:14:36.880-04:002017-10-10T14:14:36.880-04:00I always find it fascinating which parts of histor...I always find it fascinating which parts of history are remembered and which aren't (Leif and Amerigo no ... but Columbus yes?). I think Columbus Day used to be a much bigger deal (many states don't make it a holiday anymore - though it remains a national holiday) - then there was the whole: 1) he didn't ACTUALLY land here and 2) natives actually "discovered" the land things. Funny that even in my AP American History class, we didn't look into more than Columbus.Momma Kat and Her Bear Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04254210236142173792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6130826477942021081.post-72699197886650307152017-10-10T12:47:48.195-04:002017-10-10T12:47:48.195-04:00CK you are beautiful AND a scholar!!

For some reason, a number of blogs I subscribe to via email (yours is one of them), have not been delivered for the past few days (it seems to be mostly Blogger Blogs, but there are a few others). I have tried to re-subscribe to those that it is happening with, but it says I am already subscribed......what do I do??? Is this happening to anyone else? <a href="http://www.catchatwithcarenandcody.com" title="catchatwithcarenandcody" rel="nofollow">catchatwithcarenandcody</a>Cat and DOG Chat With Carenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02666719374831725417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6130826477942021081.post-71610533288859533852017-10-10T07:23:45.206-04:002017-10-10T07:23:45.206-04:00Thank you for the history lesson, CK!
