Discussions in Democracy: Idaho 'We the People' Programs for Teachers and the General Public
A summer teacher institute on the presidency of Thomas Jefferson, reading and discussion programs on Lewis and Clark, Speakers Bureau presentations, and a grant program that focuses on topics in American history and culture.
The IHC proposes several programs to help Idahoans explore “We the People” Themes: (1) 50 public presentations from IHC’s Speaker’s Bureau examining WTP topics; (2) a summer teacher institute focusing on “The Unfulfilled Revolution: The Presidency of Thomas Jefferson”; (3) a series of “Let’s Talk About It” reading and discussion programs, exploring themes of Lewis and Clark and American identity; (4) a series of public radio features exploring programs funded under the “We the People” banner; and (5) an RFP calling for WTP programs.
