Today on Colorado Edition, we take a look at three gun bills that Colorado state Democrats unveiled Thursday. Plus, we hear how communities that experienced mass shootings manage the physical spaces where they happened. We also get a temperature check on the pandemic as Colorado cases continue to rise and health officials warn of a fifth wave. As we head into the weekend, we talk about Bereaved Mothers Day, a holiday this Sunday for mothers who have lost their children. And, we get a review of the award-winning film Minari.
Today’s guests include: Scott Franz, KUNC’s state Capitol reporter; and Dr. Jonathan Samet, dean of the Colorado School of Public Health. Today’s show features reporting from: KUNC producer Rae Soloman, KUNC arts reporter Stacy Nick, and KUNC film criticHowie Movshovitz.
