Transform Columbus Day

With whom do you agree/disagree?

I agree with Reagan's proclamation that we should celebrate the transform Columbus Day. Although it is true that Columbus was a slave trader before his sailing to America, and he also murdered a lot of innocent people in North America, his discovery of North America is both beneficial to Europe and North America. For European countries, they had an opportunity to get some products and special crops in North America, which boosts the development of economy. Meanwhile, Europe countries were prosperous at that time period. With their explorations to North America, many advanced ideas, cultures and technologies are introduced to North America. Therefore, the later development of North America is quick and successful. Besides, thanks to the colonizing experience of European countries, the thinking of freedom is inspired. America is a country which focuses a lot on the freedom of politics, thinking, etc. This may also be attributed by Europeans countries. Additionally, Columbus is the person who discovered North America, instead of the one who decided to colonize North America. He contributed a lot in people's understanding of the world and the economic development among different countries. He deserved to be honored as a hero and we should celebrate the Transform Columbus Day.

It is also persuading people to reconsider the function of the marines and restating the power of the magazines. It is responding to the fact that technology is widely used and almost takes over the role of magazines.
