<<Native Americans fear loss of Indigenous languages in US.
New York (AFP) – As Native Americans this week celebrated Indigenous
Peoples Day - the holiday increasingly recognized in the United States
in lieu of <Columbus Day> - members of the conti-nent's hundreds of
tribes shared a common concern: the ongoing extinction of their
ancestral languages. The United States is cur-rently home to 6.8 million
Native Americans, or two percent of the population. Members of the
Shinnecock Nation on Long Island gathered for the sunrise to honor this
week's holiday, which has been adopted by more than a dozen US states
and cities amid the growing view that Italian explorer Christopher
Columbus brought little more than genocide and colonization to the
Americas in 1492.
And further north on the Atlantic Coast, people of the Americas and
Caribbean ate together as they held discussions, danced and sang. But
while their ancestors saw their communities decimated by cen-turies of
colonization, descendants today fear their culture and languages could
be swallowed up in a single generation by English and Spanish. Decrying
<the invasion of the 21st century,> Anthony Sean Stanton, the
64-year-old head of the Narragansett tribe, said his people must <hang
onto what we got because once it's gone, it's gone forever.>
....
<We're in the forefront of trying to prevent this total collapse of
Indigenous languages in North America.>
'Hungry' for language
According to TLC, some 2,900 languages of the approximately 7,000 spoken
worldwide are endangered. At this rate, the organization says, nearly 90
percent of all languages could become extinct in the next 100 years.
Native American languages are dying out at an even faster rate,
according to the non-profit, with more than 200 already eradicated. The
best preservation strategy is to teach these lan-guages in schools, says
Meya, who notes that the federal government finally allowed communities
to take up the practice in the early 1970s.>>
