COLUMBUS DAY WAS BORN IN COLORADO 100 YEARS AGO THIS YEAR,
AND WE
INTEND TO PUT AN END TO IT THIS YEAR.
BE IN DENVER, OCTOBER 4-7, TO CHALLENGE THE ROOTS OF RACISM IN AMERICA. |
- COLUMBUS IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE MURDER OF MILLIONS OF INDIGENOUS PEOPLE.
- COLUMBUS WAS A SLAVETRADER IN AFRICA BEFORE INVADING AMERICA. HE
BEGAN THE SLAVE TRADE IN THE AMERICAS. HE DESERVES NO HOLIDAY, NO
PARADES, NO STATUES.
- COLUMBUS DAY CELEBRATES THE DOCTRINE OF DISCOVERY – THE LEGAL PROCESS THAT STOLE INDIAN PEOPLE'S TERRITORIES, AND THAT CONTINUES TODAY.
- COLUMBUS BROUGHT A PHILOSOPHY OF DOMINATION TO THE AMERICAS THAT
PERSISTS TODAY – DOMINATION OF OTHER PEOPLES, DOMINATION OF THE ENVIRONMENT, DOMINATION OF OTHER BELIEF SYSTEMS, DOMINATION OF WOMEN BY MEN.
|
|
ON OCTOBER 6TH, WE INTEND TO CONFRONT THAT SYSTEM OF DOMINATION, WE
INTEND TO CONFRONT THE COLUMBIAN LEGACY IN THE STREETS OF DENVER.
JOIN US. BE PREPARED TO MAKE HISTORY. |
