What is Indigenous Peoples Day? A day of celebration, protest and reclaiming history

Women drummers sing as they lead a march during an Indigenous Peoples Day event, Oct. 9 in Seattle. Native American people will celebrate their centuries-long history of resilience on Monday through ceremonies, dances and speeches. The events across the United States will come two years after President Joe Biden officially commemorated Indigenous Peoples Day.
