october the 12th has long been known as columbus day, which marks christopher columbus discovering what is today the unit states. of course there were people there already. it is that retelling of history which leads to the controversy regarding columbus day. >> that is right. as t this articicle in usaoday points out, 14 of the 50 u.s. states as well as 130 different cities across the country are celebrating indigenous peoples day either instead of or in addition to columbus day. one of the reasons being that for many, christopher columbus day is not really a day of what it means to exploit the americas but an exploration that eventually led to the genocide of native peoples and paved the way to cololonialism and slaver. as a rememinder of this s usa ty article, post for columbus made four expeditions to the caribbean and south america over two decades during which he or his followers enslaved or totally decimated native american populations. this is nothing new. over the past few years, there have been a gradual reckoning with the truth about christopher columbus and his expeditions.

the point is, americans don't need christopher columbus to celebrate the deeper meaning of columbus day honoring america's immigrant heritage, celebrating italian culture, and, most importantly, getting a day off. it's time for a short break. but don't go away, because when we come back, alexandra pelosi will tell me if this year really is as crazy as it feels. and i'll be speaking to the i had cla we're about to win an nba championship. ♪ [cheering] for every nba moment, there's a flavor on doordash. ♪ (burk(customer) deep-something like that... there's a flavor on doordash.

statue and they pulled it down. >> demonstrators cheering as they brought down a christopher columbus it was then dumped into the baltimore inner harbor. >> trevor: aw, look at that! columbus is still exploring the oceans! don't ever stop doing what you love! but, guys, look, for real, we need to think about whether it's a good idea to tear down these statues, because statues are where the birds poop. what are they supposed to do now? hold it in? and i feel especially bad for the people who made these statues. you put all that work in and don't know if this guy's going to get cancelled in a hundred years. that's so unfair. that's why beheading the statue is the best solution, because you can save the body and just pop on the head of someone else, like shaq. you see? flawless. but while one group sees tearing down columbus statues as an attack on colonialism, another group sees it as a personal attack on their culture. >> some here feel like they're the target of reverse racism, arguing we should learn from our past, not erase it. >> first thing that i learned in third grade, christoph

what are people getting wrong when it comes to christopher columbus right now. >> well, look, if you'reof decades two phrases they probably learned about columbus, one that he was genocidal maniac which no historian really believes, or that he was worse than hitler. hitler killed 40 million people and actually did try genocide against the jews. he killed six million jews in europe. these comparisons are ridiculous. they have been part of our educational system, that is why you see some people stomping on statues of christopher columbus. i don't blame them. they have been taught as some sort of monster. i called my book, columbus and the crisis of the west, because i tried to go back to present the real history what he did and what he achieved. great accomplishment of discovering the new world but also i call this a crisis because it is not really about him. he is being used as kind of a symbol for everything that mostly left-wing historians, theorists commentators are against in the west. they talk about him bringing capitalism and all sorts of oppressions which he did not by the way. t
