Happy Indigenous Day!
It's Indigenous Day!

So is this the first year that it was recognized as a proper holiday? I don't remember it ever being brought up before.

Also Indigineous Day has been a thing for years.

Happy belated Indigenous Day! Happy to see this taking off more and more each year. Here's to even more recognition of the people who were here first

I think the reason why it may be getting more traction this year is because Biden is the first US president to recognize it. I know it was a holiday prior but it didn't get a lot of attention until now.
