Talk:Columbus Quincentennial

That second sentence is misleading and probably wrong (depending on how we wish to define "Americans"). I think what the author intended was to highlight that "Columbus" visited Caribbean islands and never set foot on mainland "America." But I think one can argue that the Caribbean islands are geographically part of the Americas and historically/ethnically/etc. part of Latin America, no?

This stub deserves some fleshing out, since the quincentennial generated a lot of debate and discussion of Columbus and his "discovery."
