If only that were the case. Generational Montana’s don’t know their history much better than anyone else. Butte is just the place with the dirty hole in it. They don’t understand how it shaped state politics. How the excesses of the Anaconda Company got us the constitutional convention in the 70s. Generational Montanans perhaps have an understanding of their particular family history, but one that’s been twisted to make them the hero.

I grew up in and went to school in Montana, we definitely covered those topics in school.
