@irvingsociety1@lostagainnc@ABC11_WTVD Columbus was certainly known as an early explorer (hence the name Columbia for many early landmarks), but Irving can be thanked for his reputation as this great man who, among other myths, proved the Earth isn't flat.
@mike27603 @finesserpapi@ABC11_WTVD This social judgement that you have made does not discount the charge he placed against Columbus, which there is plenty evidence in support of his claim.
@RayRayelBoricua@ABC11_WTVD There is a difference, sir, between war and a war crimes. Feeding live babies to dogs and raping 8/9 year old girls is not my kind of hero that deserves a statue.
@ThingMother@ABC11_WTVD I do talk to them about las Casas' push for using Africans as slaves instead of natives. Using las Casas' account does not absolve him, but his account does serve as a primary source on the treatment of natives by Columbus and his men, which is supported by others' accounts.

@andredaughty Have you seen Jon Oliver's segment on the confederacy? It's hilarious and so accurate. It has some HBO choice words, which is why I am not linking it.
@VrainWaves I picked up listening to VrainWaves while running. I knew it would help me get through the miles, but I didn't realize just how big my summer reading list would get..
