New York s Verrazzano Bridge arises out of the fog on our approach to NYC Not well remembered as the first explorer of our East Coast because Magellan was circling the globe and Cortez was subduing the Aztec at the same time, Verranzano himself was doing his best to brutalize the native populations he encountered.
If we are removing Confederate statues from our eastern cities, we should consider changing the bridge's name.
If justice was served, it happened at the explorer's death when he was cooked and eaten by the Carib Indians of Guadeloupe
