Summary: On January 6th the Pinta returned. Columbus sees a person with black face paint and parrot feathers on his head. The person was buying two bows. Columbus had heard stories of cannibalism and was convinced the person was one of them

I personally think Columbus Day should not exist at all. I don't think it should be called Indigenous People Day ether because they were kind of born there so they didn't really discover the land they just lived there. Columbus day is the same because he didn't discover America ether because he didn't even step on American soil so he doesn't deserve the name ether.
