C. Tangana has generated a great debate on Twitter after the message he wrote on Thursday, June 4 on this social network. It did so as a result of the situation in the United States and the multiple protests against racism .

The singer wrote: "Now that we're on the subject, how about we remove the discovery of America from the books and call it by name? It's a bit more complicated than the black square on Instagram, but it's easy to solve."

With the square, he was referring to the image that flooded social networks on Tuesday, June 2, when thousands of users joined the #BlackOutTuesday movement to express their rejection of racism after the death of George Floyd .

Reactions in the networks

C. Tangana's publication has gone viral . It has more than 9,000 retweets and over 44,000 likes. It has received many responses and has caused many users to debate on the subject. Some applauded the musician's words, but others criticized him for them.

"I do not understand why we Spaniards celebrated the genocide that was committed there, raping and enslaving thousands of people. It is a shame, " wrote a tweeter. Another pointed out: "Compare the indigenous population that currently exists in North and South America and the percentage of mestizos and you will understand the difference between a conquest and an extermination."

There were those who charged against the rapper or presented arguments against him. "Not calling things by their names is an old human habit. You know, like when they call their own music," one user snapped. " You do not care what there is or is not in history books . I do not know if you have ever read one, and if you have, it is clear that you have not understood it," commented another.

In the Antena 3 program, he spoke, among other issues, about racism in Spain: "We do not see it as aggressive in this way, as it has happened in the United States, or it does not provoke these important reactions, but I think without a doubt that it is still there are things to fix within ourselves. "
