Thanks Christopher Columbus!!!
Seattle’s shift to “Indigenous People’s Day” makes a lot of sense.
p.s. Don’t forget about Canadian Thanksgiving!
LOL Nancy!
Beautiful photos Dan! Ahhhh, the beach!
And the price to be paid for our enjoyment? We decimated the Native Americans who no doubt valued the beach and the rich resources of this land as much as we do – and knew how to leave a much smaller footprint. So that’s “progress.” For whom?
Which is why I posted the headline I did.
Good one, J.A. Hamer. Photos of the beach are so beautiful.
It’s funny when I saw the headline in my email, I thought it was one of the multiple Democratic National Committee solicitations I get.
