"Former Governor's Legacy Replaced: Colorado Peak Renamed Mount Blue Sky"
Mount Evans, a peak in Colorado named after former governor John Evans, who authorized the 1864 Sand Creek Massacre of over 200 Cheyenne and Arapaho tribal members, has been renamed Mount Blue Sky. The new name holds significance for the tribes involved, as the Arapaho were known as the Blue Sky people and the Cheyenne have a ceremony called Blue Sky. The renaming is seen as a step towards healing and honoring the victims, with support from various tribes and organizations. The massacre is considered one of the worst tragedies in American history, and the renaming aims to be inclusive and welcoming for future generations.
