Monuments honoring Christopher Columbus are being defaced and destroyed. This year’s

Columbus Day celebrations will spark strong debate over the explorer’s legacy, but by looking

at Columbus in the big picture of history, one can see today’s anti-Columbian fury is either

misguided or part of a blind political agenda to demonize early European activity in the New

World.

First, let’s consider the matter of European disease transmission, principally smallpox, which

is estimated to have killed 70 to 80 percent of Native Americans. While those numbers are

staggering, the deaths happened over many decades. Holding Columbus responsible is

beyond preposterous. Further, calculating an actual number of deaths is impossible because

estimates of pre-Columbus populations vary enormously. In Hispaniola, for example, the range

runs from 250,000 to 3 million.

Which claim is best supported by the evidence that many members of
Ainat [17]

Answer:

B. Modern theater audiences can be superstitious.

Explanation:

"The Tragedy of Macbeth" is without a doubt a play of superstition. The play is about the degradation of its tragic hero and witches. It is also considered an unlucky play by performers. It is popular belief not to say the name of the character or to say "The Scottish play" instead because the play is cursed. Whether this be true, the truth of the matter is that accidents have befallen many casts and productions from around the world. However, it is important to mention that accidents are unexpected events that can happen anywhere at any time. In summary, this is the reason for which the audience and actors will refuse to say "Macbeth".

Could someone help me write a simile poem Thanks <br> stay safe and healthy
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

"Like a bruised, little bird  

Too confused to fly,  

I'm trapped, in a word,  

So confined am I.  

A captive, collared lion  

Alone in its pen,  

I'm pacin' and dyin'  

In a manmade den.  

For an eagle was not meant  

To be locked in a cage,  

Its life to be spent  

Like a picture on a page."

Explanation:

Hope this helps!
