Thanks to Mr. Christopher Columbus, over 3 million indigenous tribes were murdered, raped, and tortured between 1494 and 1508 in the Americas.
Thanks to Mr. Christopher Columbus, all of the Arawak indigenous tribes were annihilated in the Bahamas along with the Taino of the Caribbean.
Thanks to Mr. Christopher Columbus, Cortez committed genocide against the Aztecs.
Thanks to Mr. Christopher Columbus, Pizarro committed genocide against the proud Incas of Peru.
Thanks to Mr. Christopher Columbus, millions of indigenous tribes contracted the European diseases such as syphilis, gonorrhea, diphtheria and smallpox to name a few.
Thanks to Mr. Cristoforo Colombo, the English settlers of Virginia
and Massachusetts committed genocide against the Powhatan's, Pequots and all the indigenous tribes from sea to shinning sea in the Americas.
Thanks to Cristobal Colon, over 30 to 100 million Africans were uprooted, transported and enslaved all around the globe in a brutal systematic campaign of genocide, and the pathologies of that genocide is still present in today's societies throughout the African Diaspora.
And America has the gall and audacity to celebrate this horrible, wicked, unsavory mass murderer, Christopher Columbus, with a national holiday is reprehensible and without just cause.
My poem titled the Massacre at Wounded Knee is dedicated to my dad (James S. Robinson Jr.) who was a Dakota Sioux, and was very proud of his Native American and African American heritage.
MASSACRE AT WOUNDED KNEE
Defenseless Men, Women, Children and little Babies
Were slaughtered,
And murdered like cattle,
Now you have the gall,
To rewrite the history books
And call it a battle.
It was a massacre at Wounded Knee,
In your so called land of the free.
Was it because of the color of my skin,
That you destroyed my culture and me
In your so called land of the free.
But I still have Hopes and Aspirations
That one day we will all be free,
Even a few of us remaining
At Wounded Knee.
The massacre at Wounded Knee occurred December 29, 1890 by members of the famous 7th Calvary, United States Occupation Forces.

Christopher Columbus is a genocidal mass murderer who stole lands and gold from the Native Americans. He is more deadlier than the chemicals used for lethal injection executions !. He enslaved, killed and chopped up millions of Native Americans and is the Jeffrey Dahmer and John Wayne Gacy of the 1400s, he is the apprentice of the Devil and should have hanged for his crimes. Please abolish Columbus Day and change it to Indigenous People's Day !
Actually columbus is the devil....devil means deceiver, satan means advesary.....so he was satan and the devil
White men did not follow all the laws of G-d either. Yaniel, your point is senseless. White men disobeyed G-d the most but succeeded cause whites are rulers of deception! get real, man.
