Time: 10:30 – 11:30 AM

Presenter: Richard Thomas

Location: USCB HH Room 115

Description: Though generally attributed to Columbus in 1492, the actual discovery of what became known as America occurred over a period of more than 125 years, and may well have begun happening 500 years prior to Columbus’ sighting of an “island” to the northwest of Hispaniola. This presentation explores the actual facts behind the myths that have framed American history for centuries.
