Columbus Day commemorates Christopher Columbus's arrival in the Americas on October 12, 1492, marking it as a significant event in European exploration and the subsequent colonization of the New World. The day is often celebrated as a recognition of Italian-American heritage and contributions. However, it has also sparked controversy due to the negative impact of colonization on Indigenous peoples, leading to calls for alternative observances like Indigenous Peoples' Day to honor those affected by this history.
