Step-by-step explanation:
2. Christopher Columbus' arrival in the Caribbean in 1492 kicked off a massive global interchange of people, animals, plants, and diseases between Europe and the Americas. He also disrespected the native Americans already inhabiting the land. He is being overthrown to celebrate the people who should be celebrated.
6. It's gaining popularity because it's the more historically accurate holiday that also doesn't congratulate somebody for taking credit to be the first to find the land whilst kicking the original owners out.
7. The city symbolically renamed Columbus Day "Indigenous Peoples Day" beginning in 1992 to protest the historical conquest of North America by Europeans, and to call attention to the losses suffered by the Native American peoples and their cultures through diseases, warfare, massacres, and forced assimilation.
9. Indigenous Peoples' Day arose as an alternative to Columbus Day, in which Native Americans protested for honoring a man who had enabled their colonization and forced assimilation. This holiday is the same as the celebration for Columbus Day in America. Costa Rica changed the name from "Dia de la Raza" to "Dia de las Culturas" to show the mixes of the different cultures.
