Do u believe Christopher Columbus should be celebrated ? 🤔 ⛵

Well they say he was a drunk who abused women and stole jewelry. Wait a minute.
Today is Christopher Columbus Day.
But because of the latest discovery about him in the US we call this Indigenous People day. How do you feel about that 🤔
Should Christopher Columbus be celebrated at all. The banks and post offices are closed now. Gee thanks Chris.
Comments. 😂

i think it should be. if just for tradition's sake. he was like a conquerer. he conquered the US, not so much discovered it, but that's was history has him down for and there is some truth to that. he discovered it for the europeans and in this modern advanced age things like that i think are taken for granted. i think it reminds us of a time when there was no such thing as airplanes or even telephones let alone cell phones. i mean, yeah it's sad for the indigenous "americans" but i dont see the US giving the country "back" or anything so its pretty hypocritical to change it to "Indigenous people's day in my mind. people really are turning into a bunch of wusses.
