Would that be the day that celebrates people and cultures who settled and occupied this land from Asia before Columbus?

Hard to believe that at one time, Columbus was considered a hero.

Before our time, but the Columbian exposition in Chicago in 1893 was a world’s fair which explicitly celebrated Columbus.

You could never have such a celebration today, in this politically correct world.

I never understand why it is, that liberals judge people of the past harshly for not having a 21st century politically correct worldview back in their day. Is it really realistic to expect Columbus to have had a 21st century worldview in the 15th century????
