Teacher’s commitment to teach
the true history of Christopher Columbus

I, , an educator and teacher for our future generation, agree that I will adhere to a corrected Lesson Plan that provides an expanded and diverse history of Christopher Columbus. I agree to research for substantiated evidence of the Conquistadors who were condemned to solitude for seeking humanitarian treatment of the conquered natives of the land we now call America. In addition, I support the "Four Directions All Nations March," on October 10, 2003 as an invitation to all people of conscience. Furthermore, I will, to the best of my ability, guide my students toward the value, of being open-minded, and respect the true history of our country.
