Anti-Kavanaugh protest postponed 'in recognition of Indigenous People's Day'

• Student organizers at Scripps College in California scheduled a protest to "demonstrate [their] outrage" at Justice Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation.
• The protest, originally scheduled for Monday, will take place Tuesday after being postponed because of "Indigenous People's Day."

An anti-Justice Brett Kavanaugh protest at Scripps College in California was postponed after student organizers realized the event was scheduled on Columbus Day or "Indigenous People's Day."
“We want to deeply apologize for scheduling this event on the same day as the 2nd annual Indigenous People’s Day," student organizers wrote. 
"Monday is a day for indigenous and non-indigenous allies to stand in solidarity and acknowledge the genocidal mission system that enslaved and killed 80 [percent] of Natives living on this land. 
Additionally, we stand in solidarity with the 5,100 missing and murdered indigenous people."
...Student organizers at Scripps College had planned a protest against the United States Senate’s Saturday decision to confirm Kavanaugh for Monday. The protest aimed to “support survivors and show solidarity with those who are distraught by the Senate’s recent decision,” according to one of the event organizers.
The Facebook event description states that “[this] has been a really devastating time in US Politics. 
We want to demonstrate our outrage regarding the recent Senate vote approving Brett Kavanaugh to the highest court in America...
...One organizer stated that “[we] fully recognize that this event can be triggering as well as exhausting for survivors. 
We would love to have as much support as possible, but we understand that this event may be too difficult for some to attend. 
Please take care of yourself and your own needs first.”...
