South America keeps creeping eastwards!

South America keeps creeping eastwards!

I remember years ago at school and in a world atlas (before the internet) south america was way more to the west! i clearly remember the east coast of brazil being almost directly in line with florida! also the distance between south america and africa was vast! not like it looks today, am i going crazy or wtf is going on here?
