Why is there no event for Columbus day?

[Vav2021]

That's a bunch of bullcrap. The fact that Columbus was a rapist, murderous lout is borne out by contemporary (meaning written during the same time period) documentation.

You are correct. Read "Tree of Hate: Propaganda and Prejudices Affecting United States Relations with the Hispanic World". There was a concerted effort at the time to portray Spain as “cruel, bigoted, exploitative and self-righteous in excess of reality,” by the late ethno-historian Charles Gibson. The reason behind the propaganda at the time was due to the unintentionally combined efforts of the English and Dutch, who competed with Spain in settling the New World, and by Protestant antipathy toward Catholic Spain. Through that, the "La Leyenda Negra" was created (an unintentionally combined effort by the English and the Dutch) to portray spain as monsters.

Here's what the "knights of columbus" do, that were oh-so inspired by a "rapist, murderous lout"
