Curtis Cesspooch, tribal chairman of the Northern Ute tribe, told Lt. Gov. Barbara O’Brien that the state of Colorado should “issue an apology” to the tribe for exiling them from their homeland after the Meeker “incident” in 1879. The Fort Duschesne area, where the tribe now lives, is “nice,” but not “homeland,” he stated.
