I had a discussion with some individuals of this generation concerning the legacy of Christopher Columbus and it was quite different then the one I was raised with. For in our days we adjusted our thoughts on a person based on the time period they came from and as such the norm of the society they lived in. While today many of the young people view our ancestors based only on the time period that they exist in now.Let me state it clearly that slavery in every generation is “wrong” and Christopher Columbus support for said institution was wrong but today that evil is seen in a more visible light then it was in the past. Every generation G-D willing discovers new humanity and continues to grow. We shouldn’t condemn our ancestors for despicable acts from today’s world for if so we will ourselves will be linked to condemnation by our successor in a future that might be closer then it seems.
