columbus didn't find America. The natives did.

They stole our damn land

Something worthy of mention is that you shouldn't completely distrust the government, either.

Meanwhile schools in Canada teaching us about residential schools and how crappy they were, the poor living conditions of First Nations reserves, etc. in 5th grade (not in 5th grade now, still remember the lessons on First Nations at my school)

The Syrup is racist!!!

But Columbus day is chill!!!

Yeaaahhhhh... Media is pretty dumb...

they stole our land

Exactly!!! Columbus Enslaved the Natives!!! But he gets a f**king Holiday!!! It's so stupid!

ikr

Cristopher Columbus was kind of an idiot, he thought he was at India when he sailed across the ocean, and people think he discovered America. Fun fact: Christopher Columbus has never been to where the USA is now.

Yeah, I know all of that. He also thought the world was smaller than it is and would've starved before he reached India.

CONFUSION

ARE YOU A NATIVE AMERICAN???

YES

o u c h

But hey, could have been worse if either you were never found (the Americas) or your found in the 1800's

how would it be worse

Everything would be slower (you might be enslaved or something today)

without us, you guys would probably be in Europe still

Without us you would still be in America

we are in America what are you talking about

It's not fair to ask him questions he has no way of knowing the answer to.

The Ottomans didn't allow Europeans to pass by their part so Columbus went west.

Fun Fact: Because Easter Island people didn't have outside communications, by the time they were found, they were a shadow of their old selfs

idk about that

June 2nd, 1924 to be exact

Native Americans didn't become citizens till the 1920's

Native Americans were the first citizens

no, they got kicked onto reserves and were treated harshly until the 1920's when their treatment got better

white people are cruel

I do believe humans in general are cruel.

Sooooo...... All white people are bad?? Sorry if I’m missing your point

well im chicano also

thats some bullsh*t

Its true

That's the stupidest true thing I've heard all year.

the hell is he talkin bout

I’m 1/4 Native American

Which media?

All of it

I can safely say that the Social Media I associate with is not okay with Columbus day. Aunt Jemima was a racist product.

There is no GOOD social media ya know...

Did I ever make that assertion? Gotta say though, Twitter is looking really hot these past 6 mo.
