great truths but it also holds great lies. The United States has held on to the belief that

Christopher Columbus was the discoverer of North America since the beginning of it?s

recorded history. The total unwillingness of the American society to yield to new history is

a travesty to not only the law of progress but to the people that discovered North America,

the Vikings. The problem of not giving recognition to the Vikings discovery of North

America must be dealt with in order to put history in the proper prospective.

When one picks up a America History textbook, it invariably makes mention to the

so called voyage of discovery by Christopher Columbus. The existence of the text is in it

self not a problem, but the beliefs behind the text is were the injustice occurs. That very

?History? book is not teaching history but rather it is teaching the young of this country to

look past the truth and blindly believe in Columbus?s voyage of discovery. A grand

injustice is occurring in schools a over this country. The grand injustice is non other than

the oppression of the facts that Viking explores discovered
