Thugs and Thuggery: Montana Union Bosses Behaving, Badly?

September 7,, 2023 @ 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm

Lewis & Clark Library - Helena, MT
Free

Montana has long held the reputation of being the bastion of organized labor in the Rocky Mountains, seeing the birth of its first union in 1866. Organized labor helped build the Montana we know and love today, but included some rascals, scoundrels, and criminals along the way.
Join Montana Historical Society’s State Archivist Rich Aarstad in a romp through a century of Montana labor leaders who were charged with “behaving badly” and judge for yourself whether they did in fact stray outside the boundaries of law and decency.
