Lincoln was the liberator of the slaves, the savior of the Union, and a martyr for the cause of freedom.

@@user-io6gw8hj6p Please remember that Lincoln was a Republican who declared “All men are created equal”. He freed the slaves. The Democrats who wanted to continue slavery. The KKK was started in the South by Democrats. Yes, early settlers killed the Native Americans almost to the point of extinction. The Native American Tribes were also killing other tribes. And No, we cannot undo the past. And those who stay focused on the past will never prosper in the future.

Not to make the claim that Columbus was a saint or anything, but: 1) The Native Americans were practicing slavery and taking each others land by force before Columbus or Leif Ericson arrived. 2) Columbus and the Spanish encountered native tribes here in North and Central America that were practicing cannibalism. How come no one condemns those practices? Columbus is said to be bad and need cancelling because he owned slaves and for what happened to the Native Americans during the colonization. But the natives were already doing the same thing, and some of them were EATING PEOPLE! I don't feel the need to cancel Columbus or the holiday. I feel the need to learn from history.

In Christianity, they eat in thought and practice Jesus. They have what they call 'communion.' Columbus went to lands in the area now called the Caribbean and South America. He did not come to lands now called 'The U.S. unless we count Puerto Rico as such.

@@morehyeshiahhistorylessons94 Columbus encountered cannibals nonetheless, as did the Spanish when they were in Mexico and Central America. Christians eat bread for communion. Not human flesh. It's symbolic.
