History is just that …. “history” … whether good or bad … nonetheless “history”, which must be understood in order to progress as a human race. On the one hand, the original inhabitants of these Islands are long gone as a result of “discovery” by Christopher Columbus … BUT on the other hand we are “ALL” (irrespective of race or nationality) here today as a result of such “discovery” … and with a Tourist Economy based on principally based on Sun, Sand and Sea … and now Swimming Pigs … we should exploit “the fact” that he landed here, whilst at the same time effectively communicating “the good and bad” of such “discovery” … as again it is “history” and we are in a unique position to tell it to the World … without the use of a Sledge Hammer, which has caused much embarrassment to many Bahamians.
Truly “A New Day” … fanning innuendo and libelous rhetoric in an unregulated environment caused much unnecessary division in such a “small” community that was traditionally for the most part prior to The Punch harmonious.
Oh Boy … what does Sir Intellectual Elitist Genius propose … Lucayan/Taino/Arawak/Carib Day (can’t insert Indian as that would be racist) as these are the only “true” ancestral inhabitants of these Islands … the rest of us … White, Red, Bright, Yellow, Brown, Black, Blue … European, North/South American,African, Indian, Chinese …are “all” New Comers … but irrespective, can trace their presence here today back to “Discovery” by Columbus!?!
