1492? Says Who?

Welcome to Civics and Coffee! In my premiere episode, I talk about the "beginnings" of America as it is commonly taught in school - including the discovery of North America, the indigenous people who were here before European contact and why Columbus gets so much credit. All in the time it takes to enjoy your morning coffee!
