The usual run of business of The Democracy Project at Southern Oregon University includes visits to other democratic countries.

Melissa DiCorrado comes from one of those, Italy. She grew up to teach democracy and immigration to high school students.

And it was a Democracy Project trip two years ago that first connected her to SOU. Melissa is our guest in the latest on-air installment of TDP; she gives her perspective on the two democratic countries she knows best.
