This is an outrage!
This a violation of our human rights!
Dude, what the hell is going on?
You didn't hear the announcement?
They just canceled Columbus Day.
We have to come to school on Monday!
They what?!
They can't do this! We made plans!
Some asshole went and convinced the school board
that Columbus Day is racist and should be eliminated.
You can't take away a day off.
We're just innocent children!
Dude. What asshole would take away a holiday?
My name is Peter Galtman.
I am the head of the school calendar committee.
I have decided the school
will not celebrate Columbus Day this year.
I realize this is
a hot-button issue for many families,
but one parent in particular
has really swayed my opinion with his passion --
Mr. Randy Marsh.
Mr. Marsh pointed out to me the hypocrisy
of glorifying a genocidal murderer.
And Mr. Marsh is, right now, also working
on having the Columbus statue taken down in Canyon City.
Come on, everybody!
Let's take this fuckin' thing down!
Yeah!! Yeah!
Take it down!
Columbus was a mass murderer!
[ Chanting ]Tear it down! Tear it down!
Yeah!

Hey, dude.
Dude, did you know it's your dad
who's getting the school to cancel Columbus Day?
Yeah. Dude, I don't know what's going on.
He's really serious about this.
Well, you got to do something.
If you get him to back down,
maybe the school will reconsider.
I can't get him to back down.
Stan, I have to deal with my mom
doing shit like this all the time,
but she's never tried to take away a holiday.
I'm your best friend, but I can't have your back
when the guys find out about this.
I'll try, okay?
[ Door closes ] I got to go.
Okay, Stan. you got your phone?
We need to call everyone on this list.
They all live in the same city.
Dad, listen, you need to ease off a little here, okay?
Stan, it's not right that people celebrate a man
who wiped out millions of people
for his own glory. Let's go.
Hello, is this, uh, Howard Peterson?
You live in Columbus, Ohio. Is that correct?
Yeah? You racist piece of shit.
You heard me.
You're an intolerant pig.
Oh, you're not?
You just choose to live in a city named for ethnic cleansing?
No, fuck you.
Rename your city, asshole.
Hello?
Okay, next one. Come on. Get calling, Stan.
Dad, come on.
We all get your point,
but don't you think you're overdoing it?
You have to overdo it in today's society, Stan.
You can't be nuanced and subtle anymore
or else critics go, "Wow, what was the point of that?"
Hi, Francis Melman?
Hey! How are you, you fuckin' racist?
Reporter: Christopher Columbus --
explorer, pioneer.
Is he someone who should be appreciated?
Or was he just a douche?
For years. Columbus Circle has been a landmark
and photogenic intersection in New York City.
So it came as a surprise
when someone defecated on the statue earlier today.
I'm joined now by the man who did the actual defecating,
Mr. Randy Marsh of South Park, Colorado.
Good evening!
Mr. Marsh, you took a dump on the beloved statue that
has been an icon here in the city for years.
What was your reasoning?
Well, I just have a problem
with the racist people of this city.
"Yee-haw! I'm from New York.
I drive around a big circle
that celebrates a guy who murdered Native Americans.
Shoo wee!"
So, you're doing this because of indigenous peoples
and their feelings?
I don't care if people get indigenous.
I'll crap all over their statues.
I'm the one who's indigenous that this landmark even exists!
Uh, uh... ba-back to you, Tom.
[ Sniffles ]
It ain't right.
They make you work like a dog
and then just tear away your one day off in October
like you're a piece of trash.
Hey, guys.
Boo! Boo! Nobody likes you, Stan.
Look, I tried talking to him, all right? He's just really against all the things Columbus did.
Does anybody know what Columbus actually did?
Yeah. In 1492, Columbus got us a day off school.
That's what matters.
No. No, wait, guys. Maybe that's it.
When I'm dealing with my mom,
sometimes it works to be on her side for a minute.
Maybe we should find out all the things
people find offensive about Columbus and --
And then totally act like we care.
I like it, Kyle.
I'll just look up "Columbus, offensive, inflammatory..."
Yeah, this is sweet.
It's like that movie where the dude pretended to be on the monster's side.
You know, with the guy and the chick that had the wife beater on,
but her boobs were sweaty so you could see them.
Oh, I love that movie!
Yeah, this is a lot like that.
What'd you find, Kyle?
Nothing.
Dang it! There's nothing?
Stan, can I talk to you for a minute?
What? What? What the hell was that?
Hey, Dad?
Not now, Stan.
I'm working on a proposal
to change British Colombia to just British.
But, Dad, Kyle found a picture on Instagram.
It pretty much looks like you
dressed as Columbus at a Halloween party.
♪♪
Where did you get that?
If you hate Columbus so much,
why'd you dress up like him?
Look, that was a long time ago. Okay?
Just a dumb Halloween costume.
Yeah, but... here's you
dressed as Columbus at a formal dinner,
and here's you dressed as Columbus
at a football game.
And you as Columbus on St. Patrick's day.
Look, I was younger! We were all younger.
It was another time.
You have to understand, it was 2013.
Everyone was stoked on Columbus back then.
Yeah, but, Dad, you seem to be really stoked on Columbus.
If you guys found those pictures online,
it's only a matter of time before everyone else does.
People won't care about what I do now.

wanted everyone to witness my test.

Guys, what are you doing?
It's over, Eric.
We have to come to school on Monday.
Just face it.
I'm not facing anything. We still have time.
There has to be a way we can --
Dude, there's nothing we can do, all right?
Oh, okay. I see.
Is that what Columbus did? Just give up?
On his dream? No.
Columbus believed that kids should have a day off school.
And even when his own country wouldn't support his cause,
Columbus said, "Fine. I'll go find a new land
where kids can have that day off."
Eric, just let it go.
And when Columbus sailed to distant places
only to find people already there
who said, "No! Stay off our land!
We want our kids to have to go to school!"
He said, "No! It's just one day in October.
They need a break!"
You guys can all give up, but I'm not.
Because in 1492, Columbus got us all a day off school.
With just three ships, he sailed over
so we could have some 'me time' in October.
And, yes, millions were slaughtered and throats were cut.
But if we don't get that day off school,
then for what?
Come on, guys.
There's something else we can try.

there was an irregularity with your test.

What is it?
Well, it's just a little too odd.
We need to do the test again.
Do it again? That's not fair.

if we could just have one more sample.
We want to be absolutely sure
of what we found.
Uh...okay, no problem.
Give me -- Give me one sec. I'll be right back.
Wait! Wait!
Okay. Okay. All set. Let's do this.

Mr. Marsh, we were hoping to do a more precise test.
It's better for harder cases like this,
but it is an anal swab this time.

Well, uh, we did get your DNA results back this morning.
Would you like to go over them?
Oh, you did? Oh, great.
Sure. Why not? I'm here.
Let's, uh... Let's do that.
Man: All right, Mr. Marsh,
here's your DNAandMe portfolio.
This shows that we actually found
a mix of a few things in your regional ancestry.
Really? Like Native American?! Like -- Like a little bit?!
No, we didn't find any trace
of any Native American DNA in your test...
Nuts.
But as you can see here, we found
that you're about 43% Northern European,
37% Mediterranean,
and 18% Southwest Asian.
In fact, your genetic profile most closely matches...
your standard Caucasian British person.
[ Sighs ]
And you might be interested to know
that you are actually 2.8 % Neanderthal,
which is fairly high.
Neanderthal?
What the hell is that about?
Well, the Neanderthals were actually a species
that was wiped out by homo sapiens.
Wiped out... all of my people?
Yes, but you see, because of some cross breeding,
some people like you still possess
Neanderthal DNA.
Isn't that interesting?
Cross breeding? You mean rape.
You're telling me that my ancestors
were raped and then eradicated by you --
you maniacs?!
The Earth wasn't big enough for Neanderthals,
So your ancestors just got rid of them, huh?!
Well, to hell with all of you!
Well, well. Mr. Marsh.
I'd like to have a word, please.
You find this funny, Galtman?!
What'd I do?
Nobody had the guts
to tell me what happened to my people, huh?
Get the hell out of here!
I brought my parents over so you could meet them.
Oh, God!
Don't worry.
My parents are very okay and cool with us.
Who the hell is that?
Yeah, sure, everyone gang up on the Neanderthal!
Isn't it funny?!
Randy, you must face who you are.
Stop pretending, Randy.
For once, just allow yourself to feel.
[ Sighs ]
You're right. You're right.
It's only now, when everyone's being so indigenous to me,
That I realize how indigenous I've been acting all along.
I thought being a victim would solve all my problems.
But being a victim has a downside, too.
Mr. Galtman, I haven't been honest.
It's time for us all to be honest.
What is a holiday?
It's a day off work, yes, a day off school.
But holidays are also meant to be a time to reflect.
Today, I'm happy to announce
that the school calendar committee
is reinstating the day off.
[ Cheers and applause ]
But instead of glorifying anyone,
let us make it a holiday
about the negative feelings that we all sometimes feel,
say what we're really thinking so we can move on.
And so, the second Monday of October
will still be a holiday.
But instead of Columbus Day,
it will be for ripping on each other
and tearing each other down,
and we will call it Indigenous Peoples Day.
For, perhaps, if we all do it at the same time,
we won't be so indigenous the rest of the year.
And since this is the second Monday of October,
let's all embrace the new meaning of the holiday
starting right now.
Do you even know
what indigenous means, you frickin' idiot?
That's the spirit, Dave! Come on!
Everybody, let's just all be totally indigenous!
