Sonic Overload 10/12/15

In Fourteen-Hundred-and-Ninety-Two, Columbus sailed… hard to believe that was the nonsense we grew up with, the whole “Columbus discovered America” trope. Of course, we never learned about what happened with Columbus and other “explorers” who landed on this continent. And they still teach it—a friend’s daughter is being taught that nonsense at her grade school. Anyway, as always, I begin with a public service announcement taking issue with the Columbus Day “holiday” and some of the songs touch on it, as well.
