CELEBRATE INDIGENOUS PEOPLES' DAY!

14th Annual Papal Bulls Burning


In solidarity with indigenous peoples around the world, please join us for
the annual Indigenous Peoples' Day, Papal Bulls Burning ceremony in
Honolulu on Wednesday, October 12, 5:00 pm, in front of the Roman Catholic
Diocese of Honolulu, 1184 Bishop St. (at the top of Fort Street Mall).

Indigenous peoples and supporters elsewhere are encouraged to organize a
small ceremonial event and symbolically burn or tear-up copies of the May
4, 1493 papal bull "Inter Caetera" in demonstration against "Columbus
Day" or "Discoverers' Day" as it's known of here in Hawai'i. The document
can be downloaded from our "outdated" website at:
