  • “A Sturdy Core of Thinking, Fact Seeking Citizens”: the Open Forum Movement and Public Learning in Terre Haute and Hammond, Indiana, in the 1920S
    “A Sturdy Core of Thinking, Fact Seeking Citizens”: The Open Forum Movement and Public Learning in Terre Haute and Hammond, Indiana, in the 1920s Arthur S. Meyers” In Sinclair Lewis’s fictional Zenith, Ohio, in 1920, George Babbitt complained to his wife that their daughter and her beau were “trudging off to lectures by authors and Hindu philosophers and Swedish lieutenants.” Lewis was describing an actual phenomenon taking place in several hundred industrial cities, including at least four in Indiana. The Open Forum lecture movement was remarkable: a locally planned, non-partisan, non-sectarian initiative in public learning, reaching thousands of people around the country. Expanding beyond the Chautauqua lecture movement in topics and locale, it brought a wide range of people together to discuss the vital concerns and intellectual advances of the day and to consider the core beliefs and values in their lives.’ Although the Open Forum has faded from history, it was a model of social commitment, public learning, and freedom of speech that took root not only in metropolitan areas but also in small cities in the Midwest. The story of the movement in Terre Haute and Hammond in the 1920s provides fresh insight into Indiana’s history, revealing a previously unknown interest in the ideas of liberal reformers and support for public learning, and documenting the social activism of a minister and rabbi. It also suggests that other smaller urban communities of the Midwest were less provincial and more politically varied than most accounts of the era suggest. The Open Forum is best understood in both religious and political terms.
