As part of the our American History Initiative, the Jack Miller Center has partnered with Lee Habeeb's Our American Stories to tell extraordinary stories of our country's history that aren't being told. 
The nation's fastest growing podcast, Our American Stories is now featuring JMC professors and scholars to engage listeners with an inspiring story drawn from their area of study.

Let's face it: our nation's people no longer know the American story of freedom, which is why the Jack Miller Center works hard everyday to restore civic education grounded in America's founding principles and history. 

Now, our network of educators can also reach the broader public with inspiring stories that reveal how ordinary Americans throughout history have helped our nation fulfill the principles enshrined in our nation's founding documents.
 
Tune in and be inspired! 

Our American Stories: A Friendship Forged in Competition and Courage

Our first contribution is written and told by JMC's own Elliott Drago, editorial officer and U.S. historian, on the Olympic champion Jesse Owens and the friendship he formed with the Nazi German track star, Luz Long. This powerful and inspiring story reveals how sports can unite people even in the toughest of circumstances.

We Need Your Support
The biggest threat to our nation's future is an uninformed citizenry that lacks an understanding and appreciation for our founding principles.

Too many students graduate having never learned about the American political tradition—the history and values of self-government and the freedom it gives each of them to achieve their dreams.
 
The Jack Miller Center is building a movement of civics teachers, scholars, and concerned citizens who seek to preserve the American political tradition. And we've already reached 1.65 million students from K-12 through college. With your support, we can reach tens of millions more. 

Please, join us in the effort. Help grow our network of dedicated college educators. Give K-12 teachers the knowledge, content, and resources they need. Help us restore civic education grounded in America's founding principles and history. 

Your donation, large or small, will be a crucial investment in the future of our country. This will be one of the most important inheritances you leave your children, your grandchildren, and their children.
