We Are Still Here Throw Pillow

$36.99
Christopher Columbus, an Italian explorer sponsored by the Spanish monarchy, embarked on his first voyage across the Atlantic in 1492, reaching the islands of the Caribbean. He made four voyages in total, but he never reached the mainland of what is now the United States.
Columbus's arrival in the Caribbean marked the beginning of sustained European contact with the Indigenous peoples of the Americas. His further expeditions set the stage for European colonization of the Americas, bringing diseases which Indigenous peoples had no immunity. This resulted in catastrophic population declines among Indigenous communities.
Legislation by the United States Government led to the forced relocation of many tribes from their ancestral lands in the southeastern United States to designated "Indian Territory" in the west. The most infamous of these relocations was the Trail of Tears.
The concept of Manifest Destiny fueled further displacement and conflict as settlers moved westward, leading to numerous wars and treaties with Indigenous nations.
The mid-20th century saw increased activism and advocacy for Indigenous rights, with movements such as the American Indian Movement (AIM) advocating for sovereignty, land rights, and cultural preservation.
Modern Indigenous peoples continue to address issues such as land rights, cultural preservation, and social justice. Efforts include legal battles for land claims, revitalization of languages and traditions, and activism against issues like environmental degradation and systemic discrimination.
