Columbus not only encountered America, but he did so in an 'official'
capacity, on behalf of Queen Isabella of Spain.

There are many that believe he was actually born in Corsica (across the
water from Genoa), per info on the link. Having been there, and with
all of the references to names of far away places, it is a compelling
story.

Could someone point me toward the origins of our school adopting the
following line prominently in communications (e.g., every Middle
Matters newsletter, all of Sarah Collmer's "K-4 Family Updates"
emails, etc.):
"Our building is on the unceded territory of the Pawtucket and
Massa-adchu-es-et peoples.
We recognize them as the past, present and future stewards of this
land."
Assume it was discussed and approved at a School Committee meeting at
some point, and am curious to understand. Did it start in 2020? I
found minutes discussing the change of Columbus Day holiday to
Indigenous People's Day here
https://www.lincnet.org/cms/lib/MA01001239/Centricity/domain/3/2020-2021/201022M.pdf
but am not easily locating the background on the "past, present and
future stewards" phrase.
