In 1492, Columbus sailed the ocean blue -- and bumped into this land, with tragic consequences for its many nations and millions of people. Instead of looking for a good Columbus Day sale, look carefully at our history. Oct. 12 can be a day for reconciling the tragedies of the past, addressing the injustices of today and appreciating native communities. Celebrate the day as Indigenous Day. MIKE KLEIN, ST. PAUL
