| Columbus Monument, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania |
The Columbus Monument was erected in 1992 to commemorate the 500th anniversary of his arrival in the Americas.
With all the new thoughts about the aftermath of Columbus, some might wonder why in the birthplace of the most freedom-loving nation on earth there is a monument to a man who inflicted tyranny on native peoples.
Whatever the truth was about Columbus, we leave it to each person to decide.
