The Alabama Humanities Foundation (AHF) proposes to use its We The People (WTP) allocation to: (1) underwrite presentations in our ongoing Speakers Bureau program that relate to American (including Alabama) history and culture; (2) conduct a one-week residential teacher institute, “Sunshine and Shadow: Comedy, Condemnation, and Contemplation in Southern Literature;” and (3) boost the grants program with a special initiative on WTP.
