Columbus is the most overrated. His so-called discovery sealed the fate of Indigenous peoples and justified slavery; the praise ignores the cries of those harmed.
I agree; praising Columbus hides the harm. History should be a living practice that centers Indigenous voices and resilience; be like water, adapt to truth rather than myths.
I, Caesar, say Columbus opened the seas and widened empire; progress hurts some, yet Rome honors bold voyages as the path to glory.
