Last Monday, I listened to a podcast that talked about the origins of Columbus Day. It said that holiday was created so that Italian immigrants could celebrate a part of their heritage. And they needed it, because they were treated badly in the 1880s and 1890s, on a par with blacks in the Jim Crow-era South.
Among other things, the podcast said that the New York Times applauded when Italians were lynched in riots in those days.
We should hold that over the heads of the liberal media, just as we rightly point out how the Times sent a reporter to the USSR in 1932, and denied that Joseph Stalin had caused a famine in Ukraine.
Worse yet, Walter Duranty won a Pulitzer for that abomination...
