Information to consider:

  *   ??Dartmouth College is on Abenaki Land
  *   Columbus's arrival led to the genocide of 100 million Indigenous people
  *   There are 566 federally recognized tribes and over 65 state recognized tribes in the U.S.
  *   Over 50 tribes are currently represented at Dartmouth
  *   Seattle<http://indiancountrytodaymedianetwork.com/2014/10/07/columbus-day-out-seattle-public-schools-indigenous-peoples-day-157224> and Minneapolis?<http://www.npr.org/blogs/thetwo-way/2014/04/27/307445328/minneapolis-renames-columbus-day-as-indigenous-peoples-day> officially recognize Indigenous People's Day instead of Columbus Day

We hope to see your support & solidarity tonight (Sunday) on the Green.
