- The Fabrication of History
- Christopher Columbus (Europe's Last Explorer of the New World)
- "You must never forget the pain and suffering the Europeans had inflicted upon us, for it is the duty of history to mark our lost voices.
- Throughout American History, Christopher Columbus was accredited, and glorified with the discovery of the Americas, but it is not true, as it is a mere simplification of a vast chunk of global history, recalling away the back to Marco Polo and his voyages, renaissance period in Europe, and the ventures of the Vikings, and Ancient Egyptians. In addition, the aftermath of the bubonic plague pushed for new resources to revitalize the broken European societies, and brought forth the renaissance period, which is stated to induce the idea of exploration. Therefore, all of these historical hidden stories fragment together a much larger picture that is not told, nor studied, undermining the history of those who came before.
