The former president of Guyana, Dr. Cheddi Jagan, established this event in recognition of the sacrifices and contributions of Guyana's first inhabitants, the Amerindians. But similar observances are held in other countries to remember the contributions of Native peoples. In the United States, for example, "Native American Heritage Day" is observed in late November, after Thanksgiving; and in some parts of the country that have a large native population, the entire month of November is devoted to commemorating the Native American (formerly called "Indians") experience in the United States. (In fact, in 1990, President George H.W. Bush signed a bill that designated the month of November as Native American Heritage Month.)

Why is September designated as Amerindian heritage month?
Seven years ago on the 10th September 1995, His Excellency President Cheddi Jagan, announced the dedication of September as Amerindian Heritage Month. As if it was a coincidence, it was on this day-10th September 1957-that the late Steven Campbell entered the National Assembly and created history as the first Amerindian to do so. It is for these reasons that Amerindian Heritage Day is celebrated on September 10th every year. Aneesa
