Norte Dame is covering murals of Columbus. This is where political correctness goes way too far. We must place historical figures and judge them at the time that they lived. It was a time of exploration. And Columbus and Spain explored and settled most of the Western Hemisohere.
Taking down Columbus takes away the very reason for the settlements of the new world and the making of this country. Conquerors were always revered in history. Columbus, Cortes, Pizarro, Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar, etc.
Should the pyramids be destroyed because it was built on slave labor and so many people were killed, perhaps the Collisieum should be obliterated. And Notre Dame, perhaps all of the grand colonial churches should be destroyed because they were built by slaves and so many died in making them throughout the US and Latin America.
Maybe we should rename all the states and cities that had Spanish names, Los Angelos, Texas, Santa Fe, Colorado, Florida and give these states indigenous names since they come from other Spanish Conquistadors who followed Colombus’ lead. Absolutely ridiculous.
Oh and if we are going to be correct historically can we refer to Columbus true name, Cristóbol Colon. That is the way he signed all documents.
