'Indigenous People's Day' Official In Seattle

(Seattle, WA)  --  It's now official; every second Monday in October will be observed as Indigenous People's Day in Seattle.  Seattle Mayor Ed Murray signed the resolution yesterday, changing Columbus Day in the city to Indigenous People's Day.  Supporters of the change say Christopher Columbus and his crew committed genocide after sailing to the New World and should not be celebrated.  Opponents, including Italian-Americans, say the change is an example of out-of-control political correctness.
