THE HISTORY DECONSTRUCTION*

THE HISTORY DECONSTRUCTION

To evaluate Christopher Columbus’ discovery of the Americas only as a synonym for genocide of indigenous and slavery of black people is to erase the great story that moves the contemporary world, recreating facts in search of new heroes, writing short stories and stories like Greek Tragedies, fruits of the wide imaginário of the politically correct “historians” taken by the emotional bias that instead of agrandising it, sprays it into sagas and minor heroisms.
