project for 5th period world history

1. Christopher
Columbus….
Was he a villain or a hero?

2. We believe Christopher
Columbus is a villain

4. Also Columbus was very self-
centered and only cared about
finding gold and nothing was going
to stop him.

5. Columbus kidnapped Indians and
sent them to Spain and only 8
arrived alive

6. Also when Indians tried to escape
the terrible villain he would burry
the people alive.

7. Columbus would use young
children for child prostitution,
slavery, mutilation, and
dismemberment.

8. Occasionally Columbus and his
followers would kill an Indian for no
reason at all. Therefore, that is just
like killing some random person off
the street.

9. Columbus’ men would watch as the
children were boiled in soap or had
their legs cut off which was about
3000 Indians a day. This was all
under Columbus’ orders.

11. Columbus was responsible for the
thousands of lives lost.

12. This presentation was brought to
you by Olivia Ward, Hollidae Jones,
and Sarah Ouellette.
