The spirit and values of the country are embodied in the hero of the country. Since 1792, Christopher Columbus has been regarded as an American hero. On the second Monday of October every year, Columbus Day will be held in commemoration of the man and his property. However, many insist on whether it is necessary to celebrate Columbus Day. I believe that Columbus Day should be celebrated in America, as Columbus Day opened up a new world in Europe and influenced the exploration and adventure spirit that still exists today.
We all know the argument about Columbus Day. We begin to question that and I like to believe that it has to change. However, I have never heard that Italian-American consent to Columbus Day. I am from a very intimate family of Venice and Piedmont but I have never been taught to tie my Italian identity to this vacation. Then I received an email requesting "Save Columbus Day" from Italian heritage organization Sons Sons: "Our holidays are under attack, Columbus Day, the entire Italian-American community, and To celebrate the importance of immigration experience to build a great country. "
Monday is Columbus Day, which usually means a year's debate about the heritage of Christopher Columbus. This discussion is increasingly raising questions about the traditional portraits of hero's 'discoverers' in the American continent of Columbus, but on the long-term impact of indigenous abuse and colonization in Europe.
This is Columbus Day, which means the time has come to discuss every year about whether the holiday is worth the celebration. As a matter of fact, this should not be discussed at all: Columbus Day is absolutely not worth celebrating. First, Christopher Columbus is a violent and cruel man who unnecessarily supervises torture and murder of representative human - countless American Indians. He did this not for self defense but for desire for money. History is obvious, this is the only direct information on Columbus expedition.
Columbus Day is an American holiday, in 1492 Christopher Columbus landed in the Americas and on October 1, the Columbus Day will be marked in October 2018. As early as the 18th century, it held an informal celebration in many cities and provinces, but it did not become a federal holiday until 1937. For many people, this holiday is to celebrate Columbus' achievement and celebrate the Italian-American tradition. But throughout the history Columbus Day and the people who stimulated it caused controversy and many people raised this issue since the 1970's, which replaced holidays.
