E19 Columbus Day

Why is Christopher Columbus considered a hero to Italian-Americans, and why did they fight so hard to give us a national holiday to celebrate him? We take a long look at the history of the Italian immigrant experience, and how that got us to Columbus Day (now co-named Indigenous Peoples' Day). Hosted by Liam, Russian Sam, and Halal Sam. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/gladiofreeeurope/support
