Taanshi,<br>
<br>
A friend is starting a FNMI (First Nations, Metis and Inuit) focus/perspective "issues radio show" at our university (University of Lethbridge). We have been talking about the need to get our languages out into the air more. We have talked about the possiblity
of including our languages through mini-lessons, short interviews with Elders, etc.? in the programming AND music-- sung in the languages spoken by our peoples (in Canada and the US) and those of other indigenous peoples (especially when global issues are
being addressed). (There is the possiblity of the program being picked up for a wider (national!) broadcast depending on how things go...!) And, since the program, no matter what eventually happens, is so important, I have offered to do all I can to help.
However since in reality I can do and know so little. I am coming to you for help. I am so grateful I am not not alone in wanting to use technology (both old and new!) to promote our languages/cultures!<br>
<br>
So, if you have stories to share about running radio programs or you have names of people (professional and just ordinary folks) who sing in their languages and information about how we could contact them or hear/obtain their music (email, websites, facebook,
youtube, etc.), please send them to me and I will pass them on. ( I am copying this email to my friend and will ask my friend if she wants to join ILAT.)<br>
<br>
Kihchi-marsii! Thank-you very much!<br>
<br>
Eekoshi pitamaa. That is all for now.<br>
