In January, Wyoming Public Media’s The Modern West featured a segment about the Red Desert. The stories shared in this radio piece speak to many of the concerns that I have grappled with as I have grown from childhood innocence, which allowed me to think  of the desert as my family’s personal playground, to adulthood, which comes with an awareness of the complex political and ideological webs layered over the landscape.

Listen to the piece, “The Modern West #7: The Red Desert: Prosperous Resource or Versatile Ecosystem?,” on Wyoming Public Radio’s website.
