WASHINGTON, D.C. — At the official National Columbus Day Celebration in Washington, D.C. on Monday, the pomp and circumstance was in full swing.This year, though, the city itself wasn’t part of the party. A few days before, the D.C. city council voted to change Columbus Day to Indigenous Peoples' Day. The city joined more than 100 cities and a half-dozen states around the country that have chosen to honor Native Americans instead of the Italian explorer whose arrival brought conflict with indigenous people.“Columbus has a complicated history, but there is not one figure in history that does not have a complex history,” said Anita Bevacqua McBride, vice chairwoman of cultural affairs for the National Italian American Foundation.She said they don’t want to see Columbus Day disappear. Rather, they argue, there’s enough room on the calendar for both days.“I think in an era of inclusion and greater understanding of the diversity of our history, I think that’s fair,” Bevacqua McBride said. “But it doesn’t in our mind, give license, to erase what he did in terms of exploration of the new world.”Two miles away, at the National Congress of American Indians, Kevin Allis is happy to point out some of the mementos in his office.“I’m very proud of this vest. This is my grandfather’s vest and my great-grandmother made it for him,” he said, pointing to a 100-year-old vest with intricate beading, hanging framed in his office. “That’s a very sentimental piece to my family and I.”Allis said the change from Columbus Day to Indigenous Peoples' Day has been a long time coming.“We’re not trying to rewrite history,” Allis said. “We’re just trying to make people take the time to look at what real history is and understand we play an important role in that.”Competing roles in history that are still being debated over a holiday in the present. 1866

Users of Amazon’s Alexa digital assistant can now request that recordings of their voice commands delete automatically.Amazon says it saves such commands to improve the service. But the practice has raised concerns with privacy experts who say the recordings could get into the wrong hands, especially as Amazon and other companies use human reviewers rather than just machines.Previously, users had to go into Alexa’s settings and delete recordings manually. Users can now ask Amazon to automatically delete recordings after three months or 18 months. But users need to specify that in the settings, as recordings are kept indefinitely by default. And there’s no automatic option for immediate deletion. Users would still need to do that manually.When users ask for automatic deletion, a warning will pop up saying that doing so could degrade Alexa’s ability to respond or understand users.Amazon will also let users request deletions through an Alexa voice command. The use of human reviewers will continue.Tech companies have been reviewing their practices in light of privacy concerns. There’s greater concern when humans are involved because of the potential for rogue employees or contractors to leak private details embedded in the voice commands.When Facebook starts selling a new version of its Portal video-calling gadget next month, the company will resume using humans to review voice interactions with the device. Users will be able to decline, or opt out. People on existing devices will get a notification pointing them to the appropriate settings. New Portal users will get the option when setting up.Human reviews involving Facebook’s Messenger app elsewhere remain suspended as Facebook re-examines the privacy implications.Google is also 1769

Walk into Léa Rainey’s kitchen and one of the first things you’ll notice is a bucket. It’s a bucket—formerly a vinaigrette container--that would look a bit unsightly to some, filled with mostly scraps of food, coffee grounds, and egg shells.“Probably one of the first things we started doing was composting,” Rainey says. “And we actually find that if we leave the lid off of it that we get less bugs, less smell.”For the last couple of years, Rainey has been on a zero-waste journey.“Zero-waste is really about reducing waste right? So whatever form it comes in, it’s really about minimizing your waste, the things you need to throw away.”She admits it’s difficult, even two years in, but anytime she struggles, she reminds herself of the tips she gives others: it’s about the five R’s.“Refuse, reduce, reuse, recycle and rot,” she says. The first one is the most important, she adds.“Refusing is the most important thing to do. Refuse taking a plastic bag at the checkout stand. Just say, ‘No, thank you,’ and bring your own.”Single-use plastics are another big no-no in Rainey’s house. Everything from her toothbrushes—with bamboo handle and natural bristles—to her shampoo, which she buys in bar form.“You rub the bar on your head and it foams, lathers and all the things shampoo does; it just doesn’t have a plastic bottle, she says.“If someone were to bring plastic water bottles into my house, I would freak out.”Her journey is one she now hopes to share with the world—or at least with the surrounding communities of Garden City, Idaho, a small town adjacent to Boise.This September, she’s set to open Roots Zero Waste Market, a zero-waste grocery store and café. She says it’s the only place like it in the country.“I think it’s really important for businesses to start showing up and businesses to start helping consumers to waste less.”From foods in bulk—and never stored in plastic—to packaged snacks that only come in compostable wrap.Rainey believes there’s a demand for a place like this and believes it’s only a matter of time before the concept catches on nationwide.“I feel like that groundswell is what will turn the tide and make legislators and make politicians see this is something people care about.” 2236
