There is no national Holiday that honors Native Americans, but that could change in the future as the lawmakers in good ol’ Washington D.C. are currently discussing a bill that would create one. 

The bill was introduced by U.S. Senator Daniel Inouye (D-Hawaii).  The bill would call for the day to fall on the day after Thanksgiving. 

However, I am not in total agreement with this, it should probably fall on a day during the summer where it can be celebrated throughout Indian Country with Pow-wows and other celebrations. If the holiday falls on the day after Thanksgiving, those of us in the northern part of the nation will have to celebrate with a Pow-wow held indoors due to the cold weather.

We all know that Pow-wows that are held outside are way better than those held indoors.

Pow-wows are the best way for Native Americans to celebrate their heritage.  I know that I love going to Pow-wows as it fills me with pride. 

What better way to celebrate a national holiday honoring Native Americans that with a Pow-wow?

Anyway, just like everything, there are people who are against a holiday honoring Native Americans as the article points out.  Read it and see for yourself.
