| With discord over the results of the 2020 election continuing well past Election Day, this week’s curation focuses heavily on elections-related material. RealClear American Civics editor Mike Sabo continues our civics institutions series by examining the numerous resources on voting and elections that iCivics offers to teachers and students. Louise Dubé, the executive director of iCivics, says, “Teaching young people about political institutions – and their roles in them – is critical for repairing our country.” In his post-election analysis, Joe Renouard says that Americans should not expect any increased national unity in light of the election results. Katie Reilly and Beth McMurtrie look at how teachers are dealing with the Election Day aftermath in their classrooms. Edwin Hagenstein reflects on the deep divisions in the country in light of the two constitutions in America: the U.S. Constitution and the cultural makeup of the people. He asks the difficult question if the issues we see today are simply a product of our polarized politics or if they suggest something about the very ability of the people to make authoritative judgements about politics. Michael DiMatteo argues that Americans have become apathetic and complacent, preferring to criticize government rather than correct problems through civic participation. He urges that Americans vote in all elections – not just presidential elections – because voting is one of the crucial ways Americans exercise control over those who represent us.
