She and producer Elissa Nadworny spent three days interviewing people in Klukwan and Haines for the series called ‘Our Land.’ Block also traveled to Sitka, Ketchikan and Meyers Chuck. Her first story about Klukwan is scheduled to air tomorrow (Saturday) on Weekend All Things Considered. KHNS News Director Emily Files spoke to Block about her time here:
