*Lakota family donates vital recordings*
Thursday, September 6, 2007

"In a tradition with no writing, songs and stories are the preservers 
and transmitters of culture. The spoken word remains sacred in a way 
that has been lost to English since the time of "Beowulf." So the gift 
this week of Lakota language recordings by the family of Jim Emery to 
Oglala Lakota College in Kyle resonates with history and tradition on a 
level comparable to great works in our literary canon. Emery, who grew 
up on the Rosebud Indian Reservation, noticed as early as 1927 that 
Lakota was falling into disuse. He consciously set out to preserve the 
language, taping all kinds of songs and oratory. He was in a unique 
position to capture history. His mother, Walks Alone, was at both Little 
Big Horn and Wounded Knee. Among his recordings are conversations with 
Dewey Bear, the last survivor of both the battle and the massacre. But 
Emery's devotion to his mother's tongue (his father was white) extended 
beyond mere preservation of what could have become a dead language. He 
taught Lakota to new generations of students, both at Sinte Gleska 
college and the University of South Dakota. In fact, that was where he 
died, teaching in a classroom at USD in 1977." Get the Story:
