Indigenous Peoples’ Day is celebrated on the second Monday of October, to celebrate the past, present, and futures of native peoples throughout the United States. Still not clear on what indigenous means? Indigenous refers to people who lived in a place for a long time before colonists or settlers arrived and began to occupy the land. These groups of people today still maintain close ties to their ancestral land and traditions. Visit Destiny, located in the Library and Media Services tile in the Portal, to learn more about the history and contributions of native peoples. #IndigenousPeoplesDay
