Lies My Teacher Told Me about Christopher Columbus: What Your History Books Got Wrong | James W. Loewen

You know what‘s more horrifying than a splatterpunk novel? The inaccurate history our young people are learning in school! Obviously, I couldn‘t think of a better, more spooky title for this prompt! 🤓🤗

Lies My Teacher Told Me about Christopher Columbus: What Your History Books Got Wrong | James W. Loewen
