International Year of Languages 2008

[Gordon Bronitsky]

Would there be interest in creating an international Native language  
writers with UNESCO?  I am working  to create Native Nations, Native  
Voices--a festival to honor contemporary Native language writers.  
Native language writers would be  invited to to participate in a week- 
long festival.  Writers would read from their works in their own  
languages; English translations will be made available to the audience  
at the option of each writer.  A special effort would be made to  
include and honor high school and college authors in Native languages,  
for they are the future of languages.  Invited writers represent as  
broad a range of languages and styles as possible
	
Might this be of interest?  Naturally I would be happy to provide more  
information or answer any questions you might have.
Thank you.

				Yours,
