Indigenous People’s Day and Columbus Day
Today is observed as both Indigenous Peoples Day and Columbus Day, with both being recognized as federal holidays on the second Monday in October.
Some states have different approaches to these holidays. For example, South Dakota officially celebrates Native Americans Day as a state holiday. In contrast, North Dakota recognizes Columbus Day as a federal holiday but does not observe Indigenous Peoples Day at the state level. Meanwhile, Minnesota no longer includes Columbus Day in its list of state holidays but does acknowledge Indigenous Peoples Day.
