🌿 Celebrating Indigenous Strength and Heritage
Today, the nation observes Indigenous Peoples’ Day, a day to honor and celebrate the history, culture, and enduring contributions of Native and Indigenous communities across North America.
This important day recognizes the resilience, traditions, and voices of Indigenous peoples, while acknowledging the challenges they have faced throughout history. Many communities are replacing or reimagining Columbus Day to focus on the truth of Indigenous history and the continued strength of Native nations.
