Great living genocides

Paying an old pending cultural debt, I close the last page of “Enriquillo” by Manuel de Jesús Galván (the best historical novel ever written here), and honestly I am astonished to know how, with the extermination of the Tainos of this island, the greatest genocide in universal history began: More than 200 million indigenous people in an entire continent!… And, of course, my indignation grows when I see that Christopher Columbus and his sons, plus Ovando, Velázquez and Oviedo , propitiators of the immense crime, are kept alive, without any merit, in monuments, municipalities, streets and avenues…(Yuck!).
