Vice President Kamala Harris has said that the US “must not shy away” from the “shameful past” of how the first European explorers “ushered in a wave of devastation for tribal nations.”
Harris made the comments Tuesday to the National Congress of American Indians, saying it was “an honor” to address them “as we celebrate Indigenous Peoples’ Day,” the newly recognized name for Columbus Day.
“Since 1934, every October the United States has recognized the voyage of the European explorers who first landed on the shores of the Americans,” she said.
“But that is not the whole story. That has never been the whole story.

She should not shy away from her shameless past, either.
I won’t. I see no shame in Columbus Day.
I wish she would go visit the boys at any one of the “social clubs” in little Italy in NYC. Ask for Guido or Rocco.
Yet another example of that the radical left wants. Nothing less than the destruction of America and erasure of the past to remove obstacles in remaking America into a communist paradise.
What are you going to do slaver?….behead everyone that is a quadroon of euro blood…
Hey, you want an honest look at history? Let's do it.
Yes, because 1492 feels like yesterday.
“Shameful?”
Really Kamel toe? Does Willie Brown ring a bell?
If Columbus didn’t sail, you wouldn’t be here.
Oh...bad Columbus.

What about the border?
Taking on the tough issues Americans just will not face.
Just think, folks...We got a pedophile and a prostitute running our government....
Can’t say America ain’t “the land of opportunity”, can we????
I wonder how all the native Americans feel about all of the mexicans, hatians, etc. flooding in now from the border?
What happens when Kamala dumps a load of them on an “indigeonous people’s” reservation???
What’s shameful is your zero knowledge of history
The Wright Brothers responsible we dropped the atom bomb. Henry Ford responsible for all auto accidents and death.
i have no problem with history being taught but that is not their goal
see 1619 project
Columbus was a brave explorer who changed the world. Only Communists who want to chew up history in their own quest for unlimited power have an issue with Columbus.
Talk about beating a dead horse. It’s all anyone can talk about when CC Day comes up every year.
If in her mind this country should not have existed because it was illegitimate, why does this $5 midget whore preside over it as its Vice President ? Resign the post immediately.
Only if we don’t ‘shy away’ from all others. Let us take a deep look at the history of ‘indigenous people’ shall we? Or is it only whites you wish to demonize?
