From Minnesota to Vermont, at least five states and Washington, D.C. have done away with Columbus Day celebrations.
A handful of states are celebrating their first Indigenous Peoples' Day on Monday as part of a trend to move away from a day honoring Christopher Columbus.
New Mexico is marking its statewide Indigenous Peoples' Day with an invocation by several tribal leaders in unison in their Native languages. There also will be a parade and traditional dances at the Indian Pueblo Cultural Center in Albuquerque. State offices in Maine also are scheduled to close in honor of the holiday. Maine, home to four federally recognized tribes, ditched Columbus Day in favor of Indigenous Peoples' Day with an April bill signing by Democratic Gov. Janet Mills.
The change to Indigenous People's Day prompted some backlash in conservative circles and among Italian Americans. UMaine College Republicans, for example, have described the move as part of a"radical left-wing agenda."
