This is a great book explaining the history and the cultures that came to live in America. This book gave me some insights as I was writing my second book, “Columbus Day vs Indigenous Peoples’ Day.” #EtnicAmericaThomasSowell

This movie was written by Mario Puzzo (from the Godfather movie series) and produced by Alexander and Ilya Salkind (producers of the Superman films with Christopher Reeve). Among the cast was Marlon Brandon as the Inquisitor Tomas de Torquemada, Tom Selleck as King Ferdinand, Catherine Zeta-Jones as Beatriz Enriquez de Arana, Robert Davi as Martin […]

If you are looking for a Columbus biography, I would suggest skipping this one. Don’t misunderstand me, L. Bergreen (the author) is a good writer, and unlike some modern Columbus biographers, he actually used primary sources. The problem is that he mixed quotes from primary sources with innuendos. He portraited Columbus as a bold explorer, but also […]

This so-called Top 5 atrocities committed by Christopher Columbus is being used by some people on the internet. Apparently the article is affiliated with the Associated Press somehow. The first thing to notice is that the source for the article is Howard Zinn, who was not a primary historical source, but a history revisionist of […]

Studying Columbus’ primary sources led me to go back and read some of the historians we studied or heard about in school when I was growing up in Puerto Rico. One of them is Salvador Brau and his work titled, “Puerto Rico y su Historia” (PR and its History- 1892).  Brau’s Appendix at the end […]

I did not like this book. I kept asking myself, what is the point of it? The author has a secular worldview that I don’t share. The author claims the Inkas were the biggest empire in 1491 (page 64), which means there was a lot of bloodshed. Though the author tells us some of the […]

Contrary to what some people may think, the picture above is not of Christopher Columbus. In fact, there are no known authentic portraits of Columbus. The famous painting here is from Sebastiano del Piombo in 1515 titled “Portrait of a Man.” Columbus did not look like that.  Here is what Columbus looked like: “The Admiral […]

Some time ago, a Youtuber who goes by the name of “Knowing Better” (KB) made a video defending Columbus from many of the revisions out there. Yet, he said in the same video that Columbus was neither good or bad. I was also intrigued about why the video was subtitled “An Exaggerated Evil,” which means […]

Este es mi primer artículo en español. No es necesariamente un ataque a “El Financiero” o a el autor de “Cristóbal Colón no descubrió América”.  Sino, una simple respuesta a las falacias que se encuentra en él.  https://www.elfinanciero.com.mx/opinion/marti-batres/cristobal-colon-no-descubrio-america No culpo al autor ni al website, porque este tipo de ataque anti colombino se encuentra por […]

I think Hollywood was looking for an Oscar when they release this movie in 1992. Ridley Scott was the director; Vangelis was the music composer; Sigourney Weaver and Armand Assante were part of the cast; the costumes and the visuals were amazing too… but the movie flunked in the USA. At least, initially. According to Wikipedia, […]
