Residents may be voting on whether to change Columbus Day to Indigenous Peoples’ Day in 2018. Indigenous Peoples’ Day, a holiday being recognized by municipalities across the country, celebrates Native Americans and challenges the idea that Christopher Columbus “discovered” the United States.
During a Board of Selectmen meeting in October, member Roger Bowen raised the prospect of changing the holiday to his fellow selectmen. The motion did not receive a second. Bowen, in an interview Nov. 6, said he now expects the issue to be added to next year’s town warrant articles through a citizen’s petition.
