WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden on Friday issued the first-ever presidential proclamation of Indigenous Peoples’ Day, lending the most significant boost yet to efforts to refocus the federal holiday celebrating Christopher Columbus toward an appreciation of native peoples.
“For generations, Federal policies systematically sought to assimilate and displace Native people and eradicate Native cultures,” Biden wrote in the Indigenous Peoples’ Day proclamation. “Today, we recognize Indigenous peoples’ resilience and strength as well as the immeasurable positive impact that they have made on every aspect of American society.”
“Today, we also acknowledge the painful history of wrongs and atrocities that many European explorers inflicted on Tribal Nations and Indigenous communities,” Biden wrote. “It is a measure of our greatness as a Nation that we do not seek to bury these shameful episodes of our past — that we face them honestly, we bring them to the light, and we do all we can to address them.”
How long do u have to live somewhere to be indigenous? 400 years ? 4000 years ? It’s a silly concept that doesn’t stand passing scrutiny. Ancestors walking across the Bering Strait doesn’t make you anymore indigenous than ancestors that sailed on the Mayflower.
I’m really thankful the indigenous peoples were so undeveloped and easy to conquer. We didn’t have to waste a whole bunch of time with them. They were the weak.
All Muslims are conquered peoples forced to convert or die.
Happy Columbus Day! Let’s go Brandon
Democrats are literally taking your country from you.
Shouldn’t you guys be reporting on Joe Biden’s shitty economy instead, Market Watch?
Sucks Indigenous people didn’t have a better army. Or a wheel
Next is Christmas. 🤡 🌎
And then he arrested them
Happy Columbus Day! Let’s go Brandon!
I don't think he staying too long
Disturbing!!
He misspelled 'conquered people' who were genociding and enslaving each other prior to colonialism. According to all the recent archeological data, Europids were in North America long before Asiatics. Anyone peddling 'indigenous people' is an anti-White and anti-Western dullard.
How about a happy 'Let's go Brandon' day
Incredibly disingenuous pandering.........😒
There’s 364 more days to make Indigenous People’s Day.
🤮🤮🤮
really? or does he hear SweetCaroline whispering in his ear? With his SoulofTheNation campaign? Maybe we should ask the Pope as well? He won't attend the coming G20 but his secretary of state will replace him...Never knew the Pope was member of the G20
Land grabbers give back the west to Mexico
But he won’t do shit to actually help any indigenous people so it’s an empty gesture.
Italians are PISSED
Native Americans are a defeated race. Why are we celebrating them when the colonizers are the ones who made this country what it is today?!? I said what I said.
It’s a free world. I don’t get it why we entertain that certain people had rights to certain lands. What is going on!?
Don’t let them fool you and don’t let liberal market watch try to spin this nicely. Biden’s handlers and his followers want to cancel all things that recognize indigenous people heritage. Think football/ schools. This is more of Biden’s handlers (China) dividing and conquering.

Mongolian Americans still peddling those lies about Columbus?
We have launched officially...🚀 CZM
Indigenous Slavery Day?
LetsGoBrandon
Let’s just remove the holiday (for political correctness) all together and all federal and state workers can WORK on that day instead.
Let’s go Brandon!
In Canada, we recently have a new holiday: Day for Truth and Reconciliation. It is a reaction from the unmarked graves of Native kids surrounding the Catholic Schools where children were taken away from their families. Nice that Biden did this.
Clown world
👅 him more
wow
He’s throwing up Hail Marys to get re elected and keep the attention away from china and his debacle in Afghanistan. The taliban took the whole country in day. U gotta feel like a jerk off for that.
