Is Christopher Columbus truly a villain? This is what the public really thinks.

Monday is Columbus Day, which usually means a discussion of Christopher Columbus's long legacy. This argument is increasingly questioning the traditional portraits of the hero's "discoverer" in the American continent of Columbus, but the long-term impact of Aboriginal abuse and European colonization.

After deepening our knowledge of Christopher Columbus and his "journey to the New World" I think Christopher Columbus is a villain. Christopher Columbus traveled to an unknown place in the western world using his courage and superior navigation skills, but many indigenous peoples suffered from his voyage in the west. In 1492 Columbus began sailing east to find a shorter route to Asia. During his voyage he came to the Caribbean and Native Americans ... Christopher Columbus needed skills and qualities so that he could move safely and unexplored unexplored lands . He was initially at the top of the trip planning process and it was very heavy for him. With his depiction and obsession, with his charm and wisdom he was able to persuade him to fund the Spanish kings and queen.

In 1492, Columbus sailed in the azure sea. In addition, when he arrived at his destination he killed, raped and slapped the innocent locals. Is Columbus a villain? In my opinion, the answer to this question is yes. Christopher Columbus is a cruel, self-centered, delusive person and is not worth praising the discovery of the United States. First, Columbus was a cruel man who enslaved and raped and killed local people in the country where he departed. According to John Margolis' article by Goodbye Columbus, Columbus oversaw the murder of some people (Indians) and ordered the enslavement of others. An innocent locals who raped Indian women after hitting her with a rope, even rape himself. If these actions are not malicious, I do not know what it is.

Is Christopher Columbus a hero or a villain? This seems to be a problem of everyone's mind, but is the hero a murderer? Is the hero cruel and slave to human beings? The hero does not obey the order? I do not think so. So the real question is why do you call him a hero when Christopher Columbus is truly a villain? Columbus never achieved the goal that Queen Isabel appointed to him. Queen Isabel will talk about this later. In addition, Columbus handled the Tinos who enslaved them, who felt he was very harsh. I will give Taino's comment on this problem. Not only that, he also killed a lot of people during the voyage. Every hero who I have heard or read has been selfless, kind and caring. Christopher Columbus is not all of the above
