An example in the text was:
"As soon as he arrived in the islands, he seized some Arawaks by force so that he could get information from them."]]> 2016-10-17 18:39:38 UTC https://padlet.com/abaier1/VE9/wish/131271531 https://padlet.com/abaier1/VE9/wish/131271583 Zinn makes it seem like the Native Americans died mostly because of Columbus's men killed them.

Zinn said this, but many other stories said that the king and queen said yes after about 1 year.

"For example, Zinn says, 'In two years, through murder or suicide, half of them were dead.' Zinn left out that most of the deaths were caused by smallpox and disease."
