Columbus had landed in the Americas on 10/12/1492. So that is why columbus day is around october 12th each year, having it change sometimes to make sure it is on a monday. So why still have it at that time if it is now indigenous people's day. Do they realize they really are still celebrating the day their end began? Like you say they should put it on a whole other day if this isn't to celebrate Columbus.
