Today the world still puts two stories on the same page.
One of a man who brought pain,
and one of a people who carried on.
They call it Columbus Day.
We call it Truth Day.
Because he didn’t “discover” anything.
He invaded.
He enslaved.
He murdered.
And they called it history.
Our ancestors walked this land long before any flag was planted.
They sang to the stars.
They prayed to the waters.
They knew the earth by her spirit, not her borders.
So today, we don’t just remember what was taken —
we celebrate what could never be destroyed.
Our language.
Our ceremonies.
Our bloodline.
Our connection to this land that still remembers our footsteps.
It’s a good day to be Indigenous.
To speak our names without shame.
To dance, to laugh, to honor our elders and lift our children.
To carry the fire our ancestors kept alive through centuries of silence.
Today isn’t about hate.
It’s about truth.
It’s about survival.
It’s about remembering that our ancestors endured everything
so that we could stand here — proud, alive, and unbroken.
We are the descendants of resilience.
And we are not going anywhere.
