why are people shocked when puerto ricans have a decent amount of arawak ancestry? like they didn't kill us off and a lot of our culture is still linked to the arawak. sorry your genocidal boner has been ruined, lol.

Fun fact, European legends about races of giants in the Americas are nearly all derived from the initial Spanish landing on Curaçao when the 5-foot Spaniards encountered Arawak people whose adult average height was over 6 feet.
“Scotland v Haiti” sounded like a Simpsons gag, or at least I thought it did until I learned about “Germany v Curaçao”

#OtD 3 Aug 1492 Columbus set sail from Spain for the "Indies", with disastrous consequences for the people who already lived there. He landed in the Bahamas, where he began enslaving and murdering the Arawak people. More in this book: shop.workingclasshistory.com/collections/...

First time ever in Richmond, Indiana. Stopped at a Goodwill and found a new Camp Arawak shirt. It's from Sleepaway Camp, which is my favorite horror movie series. What are the odds?

Yet someone the real descendants of the Arawak, the Taino, still exist to this day carrying their ancient culture & the genes of their ancestors if you go to the Carribbean. Or everybody around acknowledges they have Arawak blood even if they're Black or white. @invalidhandles.bsky.social
It's Howard Zinn's version, too. I did read both the textbooks in school (which I think of as the colonizer version) and Howard Zinn's "A People's History of the United States." Citing historical reports, he notes that a 1650 census showed no original Arawaks or their descendants remained.

The word buccaneer descends (with an intermediate swerve through French) from an Arawak term for a wooden frame used for smoking manatee meat.

the fact this country still celebrates a rapist and mass murderer named “christopher columbus” is peak america
he didnt discover fuck all. he colonized, enslaved, raped, and killed the Taíno, Lucayan, and Arawak tribes who were here the entire time.
this country was doomed the day he got here.

Columbus did think the Arawak were human too. I've read his own journals. They didn't wear as many clothes as Europeans, no reason. He says himself these people impress me with their nobility & sophistication. And they are far from gone, their culture is alive in the Taino. Haiti has an Arawak name.
That’s not true, though. Most people from Hispaniola have Arawak ancestry.

The Arawak who Columbus first encountered were very sophisticated people living very well in a justly constructed society, with beautiful culture & art. Columbus saw that about them too. He didn't really think they were less civilized. He just thought they needed to be murdered for their gold.

I do not even know what the thought process was other than perhaps "barbecue" derives from the Arawak word "barbacoa"
