  • This 22-minute video explores the profound impact of the copper mining industry on Montana. This video can be viewed as two shorter segments if desired. Segment 1 (10:55) focuses specifically on the Copper King's 1894 Capital Fight between Helena and Anaconda. Segment 2 (11:13) focuses on the tensions between laborers and management in Butte's copper mines in the early 20th century. These tensions paralleled the growth of unions in Butte. This video presents an overarching theme of industrialization during the period from 1892 until World War I-era Montana. Teachers: find user guides with discussion questions at mhs.mt.gov/Educ....

    🤔I worked at the smelter in Anaconda starting by "sneaking a job" at 17 when being 18 was legal at the time. I started in the Reverbs in 1967 in the summer of My Sophomore year at the Anaconda Sr. High, then after graduation - on to the copper furnaces then on to the local tram in the 1970s. Yup❕ P.S. I was told that when on strike back up till the 1960s when "Scabs" were working against AFL - CIO traditions the company would feed Them "up on the hill" &, etc. The picketing union members in turn, were known to go the "Scab's" home have the family get out of the house, then trash the home‼ ~ G.

    Freaking awsome video...documentary..definately impressed. So mind blowing....they even took away the freedom of speech to win all that. Did you know Washington is a cover up and a treasure map. Makes me wonder soooo much.....?
