William Wei’s new position has historically been a quiet one, focused more on education and outreach than acrobatic responses to controversy. But ever since last summer, when former Colorado state historian Patty Limerick wrote an op-ed in The Denver Post decrying History Colorado’s perceived failures, the state-historian job has become a potential flashpoint for arguments about the stewardship of Colorado’s identity. “Good luck to Colorado’s new state historians,” Limerick wrote in a follow-up, in which she warned of the bureaucratic strangulation she felt from History Colorado’s board of directors.
