Columbus Day originated in the early 20th century to commemorate Christopher Columbus's arrival in the Americas on October 12, 1492. The day was first celebrated as a federal holiday in the United States in 1937, although it had been observed in various states since the 1890s. The holiday aimed to honor Italian-American heritage and contributions, particularly during a time of significant Immigration. Over the years, it has also sparked debate and criticism regarding the implications of colonization and its impact on Indigenous peoples.
