Why the Far Left Has Worked So Hard to Cancel Christopher Columbus

Virginia Allen •   October 14, 2024

The far Left’s obsession with canceling Christopher Columbus does not have as much to do with the man, but rather what he represents, according to historian Jarrett Stepman. 

Efforts to cancel men like Columbus come from “cultural Marxists who thought that you need to change American culture to truly change our policies at the highest level,” says Stepman, a columnist for The Daily Signal and author of “The War on History: The Conspiracy to Rewrite America’s Past.” 

Stepman joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to discuss the history of Columbus Day and the role the explorer played in the opening of the “transatlantic exchange that led to the creation of the United States.”
