To support the second year of "Food for Thought," including a traveling exhibition, reading and discussion programs, resources for K-12 teachers, and public programs; a series of civic discussions and regional forums bringing humanities perspectives to conversations about government reform, sustainability, and community development; and digital resources to encourage conversations and commentary on topics in American history and culture.

The Indiana Humanities Council will sponsor We the People programs in 2010-2011 that bring Hoosiers together for dialogue and exploration of national, regional, and community history and culture. The project will be comprised of three components: the second year of a theme program on "Food for Thought", civic discussions in regional forums and citywide conversations, and a digital platform to showcase American history and cultural programs in colleges, universities, and public humanities institutions.
