Columbus Day: The True Legacy of Columbus

vincent Froom Season 1 Episode 21



Yesterday, President Trump officially abolished Indigenous Peoples’ Day — restoring Columbus Day nationwide.


But what are we really celebrating?


  • Over 8 million Indigenous deaths.
  • Child slavery.
  • Sexual exploitation.
  • Cultural genocide.



In this powerful episode of Voice of America, we expose the true history behind Columbus — the one the textbooks left out — and why remembering the real story matters more than ever.


Because history isn’t erased by tearing down statues. It’s erased when we stop telling the truth.
