What's New In History: What We Still Get Wrong About the Caribbean's Brutal History

An interview with Andrew Rowen, author of ISABEL, ANACAONA & COLUMBUS’S DEMISE: 1498–1502 Retold, a historical novel grounded in primary sources and anthropological research that reconstructs from both European and Native perspectives the period of Caribbean history when permanent European colonial settlement began, commencing with Columbus’s third voyage.

Bernie has a conversation with Andrew to discuss what actually happened from 1498 to 1502 and how the actions of Spain’s Queen Isabel, the Taíno Indian Chieftain Anacaona, and Columbus shaped events. This is the least studied period of Columbus’s voyages and one of the most brutal phases of Americas’ conquest history, presaging and influencing centuries of oppression and conflict thereafter.
