SUMMARY:Suffrage Walking Tour of Salt Lake City
DESCRIPTION:Did you know that the first women to vote under equal suffrage laws were in Utah? And that they were the only women whose voting rights were revoked by Congress? Utah women’s political participation was controversial because of the practice of polygamy\, and their right to vote was attacked as soon as they cast their first ballots in 1870. Retrace the steps of the first voting women in Salt Lake City while learning about the contentious and complicated twists and turns of their history. From gaining the right to vote in 1870\, losing it in 1887\, and restoring it in Utah’s 1896 constitution\, Utah suffragists knew how to lobby\, parade\, petition\, and persuade to win women’s voting rights\, decades before the passage of the 19th Amendment. \nYou can print out your own self-guided walking tour of Salt Lake’s suffrage sites\, explore them online\, or pick up a printed guide at Council Hall on 300 N. State.

SUMMARY:Host Your Own “Feast of Reason” Convo
DESCRIPTION:Whether you’re gathering for Juneteenth or July 4th\, on a picnic or a BBQ\, Thanksgiving isn’t the only time of year you can entertain a debate over a meal. And there’s no better time to get some support for having better conversations that widen the lens on how we understand our past\, present and future. When Thomas Jefferson convened people around the dinner table for debates and discussions\, the United States wasn’t an idea everyone agreed upon – and as an enslaver advocating for independence\, he brought his own contradictions to the table. Nearly 250 years later\, we’re still wrestling with who we’ll become as a nation\, as a society\, as a world – in coffee shops and around the kitchen table. Made By Us founding partner\, Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello\, has you covered with their Feast of Reason conversation card deck that helps you navigate the strong opinions many of us hold about “civic issues” so that breaking bread together can bring us closer. Download the cards and get ready to savor a great discussion!

DESCRIPTION:Calling all athletes and athletes-in-training. You’re stronger than you think!

SUMMARY:Does an amendment give you the right to vote?
DESCRIPTION:You’ve likely heard\, perhaps on the news or in the classroom\, that the Fifteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution gave or granted African American men the right to vote. It’s a turn of phrase that works as a shorthand. Unfortunately\, it’s also a bit misleading.

SUMMARY:Peaceful transfers of power? Not a guarantee in early America
DESCRIPTION:Journalists and commentators have invoked historic precedents to contextualize the January 6th insurrection at the U.S. Capitol. While unprecedented in many ways\, those events are also part of a long history of bitter partisanship and political violence in the United States. Thomas Jefferson’s election in 1800 offers an example: the peaceful transfer of power was anything but a foregone conclusion. Historian Lindsay M. Chervinsky discusses historic examples of sedition\, violence\, and mob action in the early decades of American history.

SUMMARY:Join a Collective Video Response to "A Hard Road to Freedom"
DESCRIPTION:A Hard Road to Freedom: Positively Impacting the Present\nView a video on the Black experience on North Carolina’s Outer Banks during the Civil War and early Reconstruction that includes period photography and drawings. Viewers ages 18-30 participate by answering lending input related to the video that will be turned into a video response to A Hard Road to Freedom and viewable on the museum’s website.\nA Hard Road to Freedom informs viewers of the struggle of enslaved and formerly enslaved people that flocked to Hatteras Island and Roanoke Island\, NC during the war to seek freedom\, refuge\, and work. Viewers can gain an understanding of a transitional and complex time in history where society was battling views of enslavement and freedom. The video brings to the fore the challenges faced by African Americans in the 1860s. It highlights the successes and failures of the Freedman’s Colony on Roanoke Island -where the Union Army was encamped and where more than 2\,000 African Americans flocked between 1862-1867. The video also invites dialogue on how the past helps us understand the present and inform the future.\nWith the latter in mind\, the 2022 Civic Season program includes a questionnaire created to illicit response and provoke thought on how\, with knowledge\, people can gain understanding and bring people closer to one another in an inclusive and humanitarian sense. The goal is to provoke self-reflection\, inspire action\, and examine the role history education can play by following this little-known chapter of history to modern day. In the end\, the goal is to make a lasting personal and emotional impact that motivates positive action.\nQuestionnaire\nThis questionnaire will be posted on our website and open to viewers between the ages of 18-30. The criteria for choosing questionnaire answers to include in the subsequent video will be those that share positive ideas and reflective thought to make a difference in life.\nParticipants also will provide an image of themselves or one that they identify with in a positive way to be included with their answers that will be combined to create a collective video response to A Hard Road to Freedom. The response will be called Positively Impacting the Present and posted on the museum website with A Hard Road to Freedom.\n1. How did this video affect you emotionally and intellectually and why?\n2. What image(s) in the video moved you the most and why?\n3. Do you feel the Freedman’s Colony was successful? Explain.\n4. What could have been done to improve conditions in the Colony? How would your idea be implemented?\n5. How can you reach your age demographic with your message?\n6.How can this video influence your future actions?\n7. Share an idea or plan to make a difference through a community program or a personal action based on equality\, inclusion\, and the specific needs of a community.\n8. How does this video affect your views on the presentation of history in education?\n9. Does social inequity affect your life? If so\, how\, and how have you managed?\n10. Has history affected your life and how?\n11. What role does language play in promoting inclusion?\n12. What is the most important thing you learned by watching this video?\n13. How can understanding the past inform the future?

SUMMARY:America We Want To Be: Founding Aspirations
DESCRIPTION:When the Declaration of Independence was written\, not everyone was included in the famous statement about “pursuit of Life\, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.” And while the aspirations expressed in our founding documents resonate for some more than others\, there are many views regarding the degree to which we have advanced these aspirations for everyone. Some focus more on the great strides we have made; others point to how far we still need to go. Some believe that focusing on the past prevents forward progress; others think we still need to come to terms with our shadow side. This conversation guide walks folks through exploring this topic together.
