When Columbus discovered the Native Americans of Hispanolia he was the "point man" for 300 years of discrimination, murder, and the removal of Native peoples. The European explorer and settler felt they had the right to take the land for their use. Not only did they cut down forest areas, but they also brought plants and animals that were not native to North America. These things changed the landscape and the way people lived. Thus, impacting millions of Native Americans living in North America.

Columbus had no impact on "Americans" meaning Whites because there were no colonists yet and he did not discover the US mainland.. However, as explained below, Columbus greatly impacted Native North Americans, referring to the continent of North America.

He was the first of the European invasion of North America and brought old world disease to the New World. He wrote in his diary that he thought the Native Americans would make good slaves.

How did Columbus voyage impact America?

His impact still echoes through the centuries. He was the start of the European invasion of the new world. The moment he stepped onto land he brought with him disease, and the old world to the new. The Native Americans would be killed, enslaved, and pushed off ancestral lands by the Europeans. For his part Columbus was a greedy man who wanted riches from his voyages, but he died broke and sick not knowing how he changed the world of Native Americans.
