In the Sopranos episode ‘Christopher’, there is a scene where a Turtle Islander (presumably Philip Ng) gets into an argument with somebody counterprotesting on behalf of Columbus Day, and the Turtle Islander yells ‘He fed our people to his dogs!’ to the counterprotesters.
I have a feeling that that was an oversight since Columbus never set foot in what we now call the United States, and I get the feeling that the Turtle Islander was from one of the northern tribes (the Mohawk, maybe?) rather than from the Caribbean. That said, if there are Turtle Islanders who sincerely see the Caribbeans as part of their people, that is really cool of them! I don’t expect many, sheerly due to the degrees of separation, but it is absolutely possible.
A lot of people are under the misconception that Columbus landed in mainland North America, and I would be unsurprised if there are even indigenous adults who think this, which leads me to pessimistically assume that the solidarity is unintentional. I would love to be wrong about this, though.
