Sex trafficking is a growing problem in Colorado -- the state now ranks 10th for the most reported cases. We hear from a survivor who shares how she took back control of her life. Then, imagine driving along a rough road when two of your tires pop. It happened to one Colorado driver -- and Colorado Wonders about the state paying for the damage. Also, her mother marched on Washington more than 60 years ago with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. We'll re-share her daughter's journey back to D.C. for Black History Month. And History Colorado incorporates works by living artists -- to connect past and present.
