African refugees acclimate to Vermont
Over the course of September, 47 refugees from the east African country of Burundi arrived in Burlington, their final stop after years spent in refugee camps. We talk with a Vermont
host family and a recent African arrival about the resettlement process
and how displaced people from around the world start over in
Vermont.
Also, the author of a book on a controversial Cape Cod wind project offers an inside
look its implications for wind power
in the rest of New England. Plus, the remains of a long-lost World War II veteran are brought home at last to Vergennes.
