Montana reports race for only 53% of COVID cases, which is one of the lowest in the country. I propose a story that investigates which races are being erased by this lumping of race in ‘Unknown’ categories. I am particularly seeing that the American Indian or Alaska Native alone population makes up for 6% of the population, 19% of cases, and 38% of deaths, which is highly alarming.
