Columbus Day: Venio Ergo Es

As you know, we don´t have class tomorrow due to the "Día de la Hispanidad". In the anglo-saxon world this day is referred to as "Columbus Day". It is just celebrated by those contries that happen to have certain connection with Spain because of the so-called "Discovery of America". Now, you just probably know the history of the "Discovery" from a Spanish perspective. Have you ever thought of what native americans think of that "Discovery"? Let me know your reflections on the topic on Monday. By the way, do you perceive certain sarcasm in my using the expression "Venio Ergo Es"? Does it ring a bell to you?
