Taller inglés: Columbus day / Día de la hispanidad

Next 12th of October we celebrate el "día de la Hispanidad" in Spain. Columbus day is a public holiday in many parts of the United states where people are invited to celebrate the anniversary of the discovery of their country with church services, parades... Most celebrations are concentrated around the Italian-American community. The celebrations in New York and San Francisco are particularly great. 

Not all parts of the United States celebrate Columbus Day. Moreover, Native Americans’ Day is celebrated in South Dakota, while Indigenous People’s Day is celebrated in Berkeley, California.
