3:19Now Playing“BNC Live” host Tashanea Whitlow takes viewers to Alcatraz Island in California, where BNC correspondent Anser Hassan attended this year’s sunrise ceremony for Indigenous People’s Day.
While many people continue to refer to it as Christopher Columbus Day, President Joe Biden has signed a proclamation officially making October 11 Indigenous People’s Day. Nineteen states and Washington, D.C., already recognize the day as a holiday, including California, where for the past 40 years Native Americans have held a sunrise ceremony to highlight struggles faced with their own civil rights. Not only does the day honor the fight for their civil rights, but also confronts Columbus’ legacy and raises questions about his behavior.
All this and more on “BNC Live.”
