SUMMARY:The Grange: A Fraternity of Farmers that Championed Rural America
DESCRIPTION:Join us as agricultural historian T.J. Malaskee delves into the long-forgotten history of America’s first fraternity of farmers\, the Grange. The Grange was a radical post-Civil War Era movement that pushed for progressive measures to heal the nation through agriculture\, education\, equality\, and social interaction as the United States saw growing tension between western rural farmers and eastern urban industrialists. The Grange—more formally known as the Patrons of Husbandry—was founded by Minnesota Farmer Oliver H. Kelley in 1867\, and the rural movement took off here in his home state\, eventually reaching a membership of over one million men and women across the country. Find out more about this intriguing history and learn how the Grange has played a role in your life today! \nThe presentation will take place on September 7 at 2:00 p.m. \nAdmission is $10 per adult\, $7 per member\, and $5 per child.

SUMMARY:Film Series | Ruthless - Monopoly’s Secret History
DESCRIPTION:For generations\, Monopoly has been America’s favorite board game\, a love letter to unbridled capitalism and — for better or worse — the impulses that make our free-market society tick. But behind the myth of the game’s creation is an untold tale of theft\, obsession\, and corporate double-dealing. Contrary to the folksy legend spread by Parker Brothers\, Monopoly’s secret history is a surprising saga that features a radical feminist\, a community of Quakers in Atlantic City\, America’s greatest game company\, and an unemployed Depression-era engineer. And the real story behind the creation of the game might never have come to light if it weren’t for the determination of an economics professor and impassioned anti-monopolist. \nPart detective story\, part sharp social commentary\, and part pop-culture celebration\, Ruthless: Monopoly’s Secret History presents the fascinating true story behind America’s favorite game. \n\n\n\n75 min.\, NR. \n<<Watch the trailer >>\n——-\nThe Nicollet County Historical Society and Saint Peter Community and Family Education present our fifteenth season of documentary films! A generous St. Peter American Legion grant sponsors this year’s films. The public is welcome to join us for these free films at the Treaty Site History Center.
