 The Hopi Tribe, along with several others in northeastern Arizona, is hoping a proposed $5 billion settlement in Congress can bring relief to the water-parched region. Hopis have long grappled with clean water access, encountering persistent hurdles for both quantity and quality. Some have to haul water to their homes. Others have to contend with contamination from uranium mining and other pollutants.
We’ll also talk about an effort to improve reading levels for Hopi children and get an update on the tiny, but mighty radio station KUYI.
