The Legacy of Christopher Columbus, A Short Account in Technicolor by LILI BERNARD

European domination, kill most with disease. Great warfare tactics don't take much brains to do that. Good job being infested!! thumbs up on that one!!

[Tanama55]

lets see civilized colonists coming over killing others with their diseases, hmmmm for being a more intelligent people, having better doctors and inventions, yet be disease infested compared to a native living in the jungle? something is wrong with that picture. Many people in America are on meds. the us is the highest spent on meds. so get off the meds if your so awesome!

[Tanama55]

I have met more people who are non native that are so insecure about themselves and the proof is to bully and laugh at other people. It is childish and this includes claiming the Europeans won domination which was mostly by killing people off with their diseases. Now I find that disgusting considering they were supposed to be civilized? lol at least I am not diseased ridden

[Tanama55]

I want to say I am proud to claim Taino because of my family that passed it on for generations and not because people who are non Taino form an opinion or read what they like to decide who has been exterminated. I find if people are offended that Tainos and Natives are trying to tell a story of what happened and people say, "so?" Then it means people who are non native sometimes have more insecurity than we do. I am solid in my beliefs as a christian and solid in my identity.

[rudey7777]

pity you never get this REAL version in history lessons at school, what we learn at school is pure 100% disinformation

[11kuuipo]

@selenadelos: bless you but I can't pray for someone like like that, it is pure evil and I pray their days are numbered. The world will evolve and when they see that they panic.

[11kuuipo]

with the Taino drawing first blood. They didn't. The Spaniards took that as weakness and assumed they could enslave them. They left the Caribes, who practiced cannabalism, alone. Your racism gets you attention like shock jocks get ratings, the more outrageous and ignorant you are, the more attention you get.

[11kuuipo]

@Custer 264: Taino weren't cannibals, they resisted the Caribes and others, their spirituality was balanced. The life was to live honorably or die honorably which is why we resisted slavery, and why Columbus used that kind of violence to try to force submission. This is clearly documented in history, he was under the direction of Ferdinand and Isabela at the same time as the Inquisition, they were apocalytic Christians who meant to get to heaven by killing non-Christians, it had nothing to do

[Naumcaleb21]

Que pena que fuera representado con una imagen mulata y no con una imagen genuina indígena, con prendas de indios norteamericanos y peinados que jamás usarías los taínos, la idea está fantástica, pero de los personajes solo es fidedigno la imagen española, en otras palabras, quien escogió los personajes taínos es un fracaso.

[videoeloquence]

I only like the educational aspect of this video. It is not something I would hit the like button for.

[custer264]

If you wanted to keep America you should have fought harder! Thank us for the wheel and penicillin.

It's really "Thou shalt not murder." and killing cannibals is not murder especially when they draw first blood.

Same thing the Muslims did. Then they cry after they get their asses handed to them.

[LOCUSTHATER666]

So much for the christians following "Thou shall not kill." Christianity=Contradictions and Hypocrisies. It needs to disappear forever....

[NoirHammer]

Well said. Time to speak the truth!

[cidisking]

de las casas is the man but i was completely unaware of the work you are doing here .... thank you for creating and sharing such a powerful video .... i will be sharing with my folks for sure

[Lisa3679]

This was an acceptable representation of a portion of history. If it was actual footage, your You Tube account would be closed for overly graphic content. Good that you added "viewer discretion" to the description.

It's horrible to hear people say Native people are extinct. It's amazing that it even goes on in places of education. People are being lied to by those who should know better. But, they probably don't care. Which is why Native Americans should keep talking, and keep the culture alive.

[custer264]

Columbus brought Christianity to a cannibals!

[Koryuhoka]

@custer264 - Again, more re-written history. The Native People of the Americas had NO cannibalism. It in fact did occur in Europe! And you have to know this is true! After all, who eats bloody rare meat??? Where does dining on meat filled with blood come from? Europeans! And the cradle of Agricultural knowledge was Pre-Columbian America! So Custer, as you were before, you are a failure now still.

[Koryuhoka]

@custer264 - Aside from that - the People of the Americas before Chris-THIEFER Columbus came, woshipped the Most High, the God of the Bible, and called upon Him by NAME! The Taino called Him YA YA - I AM I AM... the Aniunwia AKA Cherokee called Him YAH HO WEH! As well as other North American Tribes. So THAT IS WHAT columbus TRIED TO WIPE OUT! THE LIVING RECORD THAT WE ARE THE 12 TRIBES OF ISRAEL! This was his reason for coming to the Americas. And this information is DOCUMENTED!

[TheTainoWarrior]

We r still here Taino pride!!!! We still exist!!! Fuck columbus's day!!!!!

[EmpressInferno]

@Kuumbajah a really great video but a very misinformed response. If you read my post for OVERSTANDING you would note I said "WHOLE PEOPLES" to reference those nations who in fact did experience genocide due to the founding of the AMERIKKKA'S, I know there are still Taino in existence, which is why I did not say the 'TAINO' specifically. My own people the Maroons of Jamaica fought against the same Spanish then Brittish, so don't you assume to know what I know or don't know. PEACE!

[Koryuhoka]

PEOPLE... THE TAINO WERE NOT WIPED OFF THE FACE OF THE EARTH. WE WERE NOT ANNIHILATED! WE ARE HERE! OUR MEMORY OF OUR PAST MAY HAVE BEEN FORCED OUT OF OUR MINDS AND HEARTS BUT WE ARE HERE! AND YES!!! I NEED TO SCREAM THIS OUT BECAUSE IT IS A HUGE INJUSTICE FOR YOU WHO KNOW NOTHING TO TELL US THAT WE DON'T EXIST ANYMORE! LET THE LIE DIE OUT WITH YOU! OR JUST SHUT UP ABOUT SOMETHING YOU DO NOT ANYTHING ABOUT! WE! ARE! HERE!!!

[fuckrock67]

@Koryuhoka why did they hire niggers to do this video? why coudn't they hire pure blooded natives?

the native americans were not black, they looked asiatic!

[Koryuhoka]

@fuckrock67 - Those are not "niggers" - they are Natives. But you would not know this because you have no clue of REAL History. You have been mis-educated by the US fraud of an education system. Natives of the Americas ranged from Black Skinned to Almond Colored. Aside from that, the "niggers" you are referring to are - Slave-Ship Negroes - are Related to us Native People. We make up the Northern and Southern Kingdom of Israel - The REAL 12 Tribes of Israel, ready to be REDEEMED!

[fuckrock67]

@Koryuhoka lol @ these niggers pretending to be natives, listen here bub, they are not the 12 tribes of israel, and blacks are least related to native americans, natives are genetically closer to north east asians dummy! Blacks are closely related to apes!

You are no native at all, most ricans are predominantly white and black in autosomal DNA tests. the average PR is 15% native, look this up on google and search up the autosomal admixture of puerto ricans

[24kingpinn]

@fuckrock67 HEY DUMB ASS TH NIGGERS" WE COME FRM MESOPOTAMIA TH NATION OF ISRAEL WS NEIGHBOR 2 TH MOABITES (CHINESE NT TH WHITE MONGOLOIDS WHO U KNW AS CHINESE TH REAL 1s WTH NO EDOMITE BLOOD TH "WHITE" CHINESE LOOK DWN UPON) & AMMONITES THE (JAPANESE ALSO A DARK SKIN PPL).

[24kingpinn]

@Koryuhoka BA HASHIM HA MASHAYACH YAHAWASHI!! QUAM YASHRALA! AND THIS IS THE PATIENCE OF THE SAINTS

[paulpaid]

@Koryuhoka Greetings. I have often wondered how some come to the conclusion that Native American and Taino people are part of the tribes of Yisrael. With all due respect, I have to ask , is there any biblical or other foundation on which you base this belief?............Shalum

[badazzfeliciano]

@Koryuhoka RIGHT ON!

[strangeyoungwoman]

FUCK COLUMBUS DAY! FUCK CHIRISTOPHER COLUMBUS AND FUCK THAT FUCKIN' BOAT HE SAILED IN ON. and btw--look up: CORPORATE AVENGER's CHRISTIANS MURDERED INDIANS.

[thetainos737]

i am mad that i can not watch the video they said an error occurred please try again later

[EmpressInferno]

This was truth and I am sure a lot less graphic than the actual events. Do you not realize that whole peoples where wiped off the face of this planet to satisfy the greed of one people, the shame belongs to the monsters who perpetuated this genocide for power and greed. This is not the Disney version of Pocohantas, not the lies your teacher told you, this is the truth of how Europe and Amerikkka flourished as the expense of Indigenous Nations.

[Koryuhoka]

@EmpressInferno - No - we are still here. I wish people would stop helping the spread of lies. Our people were NOT wiped off the face of the earth.

[theoperaguy]

Columbus Day?!?!?!

[EthanCole15]

I couldent watch all this video...

[anabelreyes2011]

Hello Lili congratulations on this film. It is a great job. I met you at the Reel Rasquache Art & Film Festival but this is the first time I see your film.

No es un cuento de andas pero es el cuento real de nuetra historia.

[abelbeau99]

It's crude, very crude, it's horrible

but

it's history! not romance.

After few years Cuba and all Antilles were with almost no native population, so they traded slave from Africa........

[Koryuhoka]

@abelbeau99 - No - it's a huge LIE! Not TRUE history. Stop believing lies.

[abelbeau99]

@Koryuhoka

So professors of Modern History teached me in University,

did you ever red the relations of Bishop Las Casas ? He was there in XVI century.

[Koryuhoka]

@abelbeau99 - I know De Las Casas was there. And he himself reminded Chris-THIEFER Columbus that he should reconsider his plan to enslave us, because we were the Remnant of the Children of Joseph, Son of Israel. But it was the plan of Isabella and Ferdinand to do so, because they knew we had inherited the wealth of King Solomon. That is why the Island we called Boriken, was renamed Rich Port - Puerto Rico. We could not be completely annihilated as promised by GOD Himself. We're still here.
