Holiday by any name

Today on Math and Musings Franklin and I discuss that much-beleaguered holiday: Columbus Day.

(Pause for effect.)

Still trying to remember?

Yeah, that’s Christopher Columbus, the most cancelled man in modern history.

Head to some backwater outpost and you might still find the holiday celebrated, but don’t mention his name too loud in more progressive circles.

Still take a three-day weekend though.

Enjoy.
