I don't think the author Jane Yolen endorses Columbus day.
From the author's note, first , Yolen describe Columbus was self-esteem , because he
claimed the beautiful litttle green island for his king and queen and country; Scond, Columbus mistaked the land for India , he called the tribespeople "Indians". Furthermore, the Columbus's
sailors asked in sign where the native gold rings and armbands came from, he was very greedy
said it was the gold that interested them the most when the Taino exchange gift in friendship with sailors; In addiotin, Columbus very ridiculously to cart Tiano people to Spain as slaves and
finally cause no full-bollded Taino.
I enjoy the Columbus day every year, howere, I counfuse Christopher Columbus the way
he had done in the history. Before reading author Yolen note, I only know Columbus sailed into
the unknown without fear, I don't know that more about the entire process, I am very sorry for
the native indian american.
