In this 90-minute hands-on workshop, facilitator Sally Thompson shares her treasure trove of primary documents from Montana history to facilitate more nuanced and respectful understandings than are commonly held. We will explore short historical narratives, artwork, and maps, from places we know, with an eye toward understanding how our viewpoints have been shaped by those who have controlled the pen. In small groups, participants will discuss perceptions and work together to tell the story from a different point of view to be shared with the whole group. The mode of expression will be at the discretion of each group. The geographical focus can be tailored to the various regions of Montana.
