SAN DIEGO (FOX 5/KUSI) -- Indigenous Peoples’ Day, also known as Columbus Day, falls on the second Monday in October, and while many stores will remain open, there will be no mail and some banks will be closed. President Joe Biden officially recognized Indigenous Peoples' Day in 2021 with a proclamation.  Governor Gavin Newsom has proclaimed the second Monday in October as Indigenous Peoples’ Day in the State of California for the past five years and is expected to do it again this year for the sixth time. According to Gov. Newsom, "California is home to the largest and most diverse population of Indigenous peoples prior to European contact, and inherits a rich, Indigenous cultural legacy while bearing the responsibility of its historical role in the near-destruction of California Native peoples through their violent dislocation." Here in San Diego, there are several celebrations as San Diego County is home to 17 tribal communities, the most of any county in the U.S. The San Pasqual Band of Mission Indians for the past two years has hosted an Indigenous Peoples' Day celebration at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park. All tribal offices will be closed on Monday in observance of the holiday. OTSD State Historic Park in Old Town San Diego has a Native American interpretive public gathering area for events and ceremonies. Named Iipay ~Tipai Kumeyaay Mut Niihepok (Land of the First People), the space honors the culture of the Kumeyaay Nation and their relationship with the San Diego River and Old Town San Diego. The San Diego Miramar College Student Affairs office hosts an Indigenous Peoples' Day commemoration. That event is set for Monday, Oct. 14 from noon to 2 p.m. at Compass Point. There will be a free lunch and a performance from the Soaring Eagles. The San Diego Unified Board of Education passed a resolution in 2019 to celebrate Indigenous Peoples' Day. The resolution recognizes that Indigenous Peoples have long lived on the lands where San Diego is built.  Indigenous Peoples’ Day is not recognized as a school holiday in California, but some districts, like San Francisco Public Schools, do have the day off. Check your child's school calendar to find out if they have the day off.
