Maine Gov. changes Columbus Day to Indigenous Day to honor Native Americans.

             Governor Janet Mills of Maine signed the change April 26 , 2019. In recognition of how our past really happened changing this national holiday will give credit where credit is due. Many Native tribes were already living off the abundant land long before Columbus even decided to sail to discover the new land. Many explorers of European decent came over and looked down upon the Natives as inferior. Yet it was the Europeans that brought plagues and strife with them.
             This act of solidarity by Maine's Governor helps also recognize the true sovereignty of the Penobscot Tribe who also is a part of the Wabanaki Nations. Many times we see time is the best remedy I believe but also we should never forget tolerance and love.
