I am Alaska Native and American Indian and do not think Columbus Day should be eradicated like the monuments the left are trying to destroy. History good or bad should be preserved, it shaped who America is now. There is always time for growth and reflection and learning from our past mistakes. It truly is not up to the democrats on what holidays we will observe, what words we can or cannot say, what monuments are acceptable, what views are acceptable on college campuses. We are a country not run by mob rule or political correctness but by all the people at the voting booth. The only exploiting I see being done is by the left.
