Neil and Randee had a chance to sit down with Nanebah Lyndon and LeRoy Shingoitewa to discuss the Tribal Monitor Program and what they’re doing to conserve and protect areas of cultural significance to Arizona’s tribes. Members of this innovative program consider themselves the “eyes and ears” of their communities when surveying and protecting the vast amount of history and culture found in Arizona’s gorgeous outdoor landscape. Please give this powerful episode a listen to understand the plight of tribes as they fight a seemingly uphill battle to safeguard their rich tribal history and diverse culture.
