Have you listened to IHC's podcast series Context yet? Context is a reimagination of Connected Conversations, a virtual program born by COVID-19. Context provides you with weekly recorded episodes every Friday to help explain the human story throughout time and place. Some of our recent episodes have featured conversations with experts and scholars discussing the American landscape, the American dream, and Afro-Indigenous history.

Context is our way of conecting you to experts, scholars, and ideas. Our goal is to help provide context on topics, both fun and serious, which shape the world we live in. We hope to strike the spark on your sense of exploration and discovery as you listen.

The views expressed by our speakers do not represent those of the National Endowment for the Humanities or the Idaho Humanities Council.

For more information, please contact Doug Exton, Grants Manager (doug@idahohumanities.org).
