Bedford Playhouse

Friends of John&nbsp;Jay Homestead wrap up their 2026 Scholars series withJames Traub,&nbsp;The Cradle of Citizenship: How Schools Can Help Save Our Democracy
The Founders wanted schools to teach students to understand our political system and to engage in reasoned political debate as adults; the Schoolhouse at John Jay Homestead was built for Jay children and also for the children of tenant farmers and farm hands.&nbsp; Historian, journalist and former Friends of John Jay Homestead speaker on his renowned&nbsp;John Quincy Adams: Militant Spirit,&nbsp;Traub spent a year exploring how schools now teach students–or fail to teach them–the essentials of American history and government, as well as how to use that knowledge in respectful, informed debate.&nbsp; Note: the talk will be preceded by a short business section of our Annual Meeting.
This lecture will be held at Bedford Playhouse (633 Old Post Rd, Bedford, NY) due to ongoing construction at John Jay Homestead.
6:00 – Reception with light refreshments 6:30 – Lecture begins 7:30 – Book signing
