NATIONAL ITALIAN AMERICAN HERITAGE MONTH Celebrate the many achievements and successes of Italian Americans

Every year the U.S. president signs an executive order designating the month of October as National Italian Ameri- can Heritage Month. Coinciding with the festivities surrounding Columbus Day, the proclamation is in recogni- tion of the many achievements, contributions and successes of Americans of Italian descent, as well as Italians in America. They have been essential to this country from its beginning, not only as explorers but also in the arts, literature, government and business. The heritage of Italians in the United States begins at the origins of the country. Important explorers came soon after Christopher Columbus under the flags of different countries. Giovanni Caboto (John Cabot) sailed under the British flag and was the first to explore parts of New England. In 1497, it is thought, he was the first European since the Vikings to touch land in North America (probably Newfoundland). Giovanni da Verrazzano sailed under the French flag and explored the American coastline from North Carolina to New York in 1524. Italians settled in what became the United States and played an important role in its history. Filippo Mazzei, from Tuscany, influenced Thomas Jefferson when he wrote the Declaration of Independence and Mozart’s librettist Lorenzo da Ponte, from Venice, settled in New York and Philadelphia. Although the first Ital- ian immigration came from the North, during the late nineteenth century mass immigration of Italians to the Americas (including the United States) occurred and it came overwhelmingly from the Southern part of the peninsula. The Italian emigration of the period was the greatest movement of populations in the modern era.

Famous names of the modern period include Fiorello La Guardia, Mayor of New York City, Mario Cuomo, Governor of New York State; Geraldine Ferraro, first female vice presidential candidate of a major American political party; Joe Di Maggio and Rick Pitino; Frank Capra, Martin Scorsese, Robert De Niro, Quentin Tarantino, Danny De Vito, Francis Ford Coppola and many more! This year, come celebrate Italian American Heritage Month as we screen an award-winning documentary, “My Italian Secret,” detailing the courage of Gino Bartali, the charismatic Italian Cycling Hero who risked his life to save the innocent lives of Jews and other refugees fleeing the Nazis during War War II. Look for screenings at our West Boca, Lantana Road and Gardens Branch Libraries! Kreyol Ayisyen, Celebrate Creophonie Month Did you know that according to the School District of Palm Beach County, there are over 150 different languages and dia- lects spoken by students in this county alone? What a fantastic opportunity for all of us to learn about new cultures and pick up useful phrases from any number of languages!

One of the most-spoken languages in Palm Beach County is Haitian Creole. In celebration of Kreyol Ayisyen, we are proud to celebrate Creophonie Month – in honor of the people who speak the language and the growing body of literature influenced by and written in Haitian Creole. Two special programs are offered this month to highlight what is so special about Creole. At the Main Library, a mini-course on Haitian Creole will be taught to give an overview of the language for non-speakers. At the Lantana Road Branch, the entire community is invited to listen as local Haitian authors share their works of art.

All Palm Beach County Library System locations will be closed on Mon, Oct 12, for Columbus Day. No materials will be due on that day.
