WASHINGTON, D.C. — At the official National Columbus Day Celebration in Washington, D.C. on Monday, the pomp and circumstance was in full swing.This year, though, the city itself wasn’t part of the party. A few days before, the D.C. city council voted to change Columbus Day to Indigenous Peoples' Day. The city joined more than 100 cities and a half-dozen states around the country that have chosen to honor Native Americans instead of the Italian explorer whose arrival brought conflict with indigenous people.“Columbus has a complicated history, but there is not one figure in history that does not have a complex history,” said Anita Bevacqua McBride, vice chairwoman of cultural affairs for the National Italian American Foundation.She said they don’t want to see Columbus Day disappear. Rather, they argue, there’s enough room on the calendar for both days.“I think in an era of inclusion and greater understanding of the diversity of our history, I think that’s fair,” Bevacqua McBride said. “But it doesn’t in our mind, give license, to erase what he did in terms of exploration of the new world.”Two miles away, at the National Congress of American Indians, Kevin Allis is happy to point out some of the mementos in his office.“I’m very proud of this vest. This is my grandfather’s vest and my great-grandmother made it for him,” he said, pointing to a 100-year-old vest with intricate beading, hanging framed in his office. “That’s a very sentimental piece to my family and I.”Allis said the change from Columbus Day to Indigenous Peoples' Day has been a long time coming.“We’re not trying to rewrite history,” Allis said. “We’re just trying to make people take the time to look at what real history is and understand we play an important role in that.”Competing roles in history that are still being debated over a holiday in the present. 1866

Where the Mississippi River nears its end, sits a city that nearly faced its own end.“It’s a different kind of place,” said Louisiana native Hosea LaFleur.Nearly 15 years after Hurricane Katrina, New Orleans remains a city where the past never strays too far from the present. The storm is still felt by every homeowner here on their homeowners’ insurance bills.After the storm, insurance companies no longer wanted to offer homeowners insurance in parts of Louisiana that were vulnerable to hurricanes. They thought it was a money-loser.So, the state created Citizens Insurance. Initially controversial, it was funded by all the property owners in the state, including people who didn’t live anywhere near the damaged areas.“That certainly was a hard sell for those folks,” said Louisiana Insurance Commissioner Jim Donelon.Louisiana’s Citizens Insurance eventually helped stabilize the insurance market after Katrina and attracted more than 30 new insurance companies to the state. The number of homeowners on Citizens has also since plummeted, from 174,000 in 2008 to about 38,000 today, representing about 0.4 percent of the market there.“The policyholders are contributing fees, as well as the companies writing business contribute fees,” said Joey O’Connor, owner of the O’Connor Insurance Group and president of the Independent Insurance Agents and Brokers of Louisiana.Hosea LaFleur’s coastal home is on Citizens Insurance.“Just fell in love with it,” he said of the home. “Fell in love with the people, the things, the atmosphere.”It’s been hit by hurricanes twice: first Katrina in 2005 and then Gustav, three years later.“Knocked our walls down, everything down,” LaFleur said.Despite the repeated rebuilding, he wouldn’t dream of giving it up.“It's home to us,” LaFleur said. “We love it. We love everything about it.”Robert Allen is an adjunct professor at the School of Professional Advancement at Tulane University. His courses specialize in risk management and threat assessments. “That's going to start adding up,” he said, of rebuilding in vulnerable natural disaster areas. “Who foots the bill at the end of the day? You do. I do. Everybody else does.”Last year, the U.S. experienced 14 separate billion-dollar natural disasters: two hurricanes, two winter storms, eight severe storms, wildfires and a drought.From California wildfires to Midwest floods to coastal hurricanes, Allen said that as some insurance companies pull back from covering some areas, taxpayers will need to figure out if they want to keep footing the rebuilding bill.“At the end of the day is going to come down to money,” he said. “I mean, how much money is being put into that and at what point again do you decide this is enough?”Allen said one idea that’s been floated is to create a federal natural disaster insurance program, similar to the national flood insurance program. Taxpayers everywhere would be responsible for keeping it solvent.“There was talk or there is some kind of undertones about doing that with all hazards threats -- like doing that with the fires and just underwriting some of this stuff,” Allen said.It’s a challenge that taxpayers will have to confront, if they chose to rebuild areas hit over and over again by nature’s fury. 3259

White House officials rebuffed efforts by their colleagues at the Department of Homeland Security for more than a year to make combating domestic terror threats, such as those from white supremacists, a greater priority as specifically spelled out in the National Counterterrorism Strategy, current and former senior administration officials as well as other sources close to the Trump administration tell CNN."Homeland Security officials battled the White House for more than a year to get them to focus more on domestic terrorism," one senior source close to the Trump administration tells CNN. "The White House wanted to focus only on the jihadist threat which, while serious, ignored the reality that racial supremacist violence was rising fast here at home. They had major ideological blinders on."The 818
