The Gravel Institute was founded in 2020 to carry on the life’s work of Mike Gravel (1930-2021), a prominent U.S. Senator, author, and advocate for peace and democracy.

We are building an institution of progressive popular education focused on the central place people learn today – the internet.

With short, high-quality, educational videos that explains politics, economics, and history from a progressive perspective in a way that is digestible and appealing for the lay person, we strive to fight the right’s online propaganda machine on its own turf while spreading progressive ideas to new audiences.
