Remove Columbus day from the calendar.

The Issue

History has not been properly represented. "Cristobal Colon" did not discover and civilize what we know today  as the "Americas", it misrepresents the identity and strips the presence of indigenous people who were here centuries before he was sent on his voyage by queen Isabella. The "holiday" needs to be removed. [Olmec ,Washitaw ,etc.]
