Celebrate Indigenous Peoples Day: Indigenous Social Media Accounts To Follow

We independently evaluate all recommended products and services. If you click on links we provide, we may receive compensation.

The discussion of removing Columbus Day from our regularly scheduled holiday calendar isn’t a new idea. Indigenous peoples first requested the change back in 1977. It wasn’t until 1989 that the first state (South Dakota) make the switch. Since then fourteen states either officially celebrate or celebrate by proclamation, and over 130 cities have also adopted the holiday.

How To Celebrate

There are lots of ways to celebrate and support Indigenous peoples even if your city or state doesn’t officially recognize the holiday. But the main focus should be opening yourself up and listening to Indigenous peoples’ histories, experiences, and requests of non-indigenous individuals. There are lots of educational resources available online, many of which can even be found on Instagram or TikTok.

Who To Follow

Still don’t know where to start? Here are ten social media accounts you definitely need to follow and support.
