neh.gov

In The Moment ... July 18, 2018 Show 381 Hour 2

What's the role of Humanities programming in rural America? How can capacity building and infrastructure grants transform humanities offerings across the state? What's the role of the National Endowment for the Humanities in preserving Lakota language and culture?

Jon Parrish Peede is the 11th chairman of the National Endowment for the Humanities.

Founded in 1965, NEH is an independent grant-making institution of the United States government dedicated to supporting research, education, preservation, and public programs in the humanities.

Chairman Peede joined In The Moment with an overview on the National Endowment for the Humanities and its role in our community.
