This week on the Regional Roundup, we bring you voices from ICE OUT protests held across the region, along with reporting on Native Americans who say they’ve been stopped, and in some cases detained, by immigration agents. We also look at growing concern in Indigenous communities over the possibility that Congress could overturn the current resource management plan for Grand Staircase–Escalante National Monument. Plus, we hear from an Aspen athlete headed to the Winter Olympics in Italy to compete in ski mountaineering, and we wrap up the show with the story of a radio play performed by students in Telluride. Tune into the Regional Roundup on KDNK.org every Thursday at 4:30 pm.
