The purpose of a history lesson is to convey how the modern world came to be.
That means you teach from the perspective of Western civilization.
Columbus INTRODUCED the Americas to Europeans and thus initiated the chain of events that brought about the modern era.
This leftist crackpot is an anti-white racist whose whole point is that Western civilization is evil and white people = bad, brown people = good. Therefore kids should be taught about the history of jungle savages instead of Columbus.
Watch the white liberal idiots concede the issue in a frantic attempt to demonstrate how “not racist” they are.

What most people dont realize is that we conquered the world as an afterthought, while being busy bashing our own heads in.
White pride?
No.
No honor in lack of pigmentation.

Yeah but Columbus was more of a Business man than anything else. Can’t hate on the guy for wanting more out of life. He was just not very good at it.

Well, he may have failed personally, but he is still remembered hindreds of years later.

But between Columbus, Rome, the Plague, Cortez they have proven that humanity’s rise was pushed ahead by Massive death[/quote]
