Chicago Native Language Speakers Featured at Field Museum's New Exhibit

NAES COLLEGE NATIVE LANGUAGE SPEAKERS FEATURED IN NEW FIELD MUSEUM EXHIBIT
 
Native American languages continue to be used and taught in Chicago and many other urban communities throughout the United States.  Throughout it's 30 year history NAES College in Chicago has fostered the teaching of American Indian languages. In 2006 four languages were taught.  They were Ojibwe, Lakota, Ho-Chunk and Navajo. Some of these Native language speakers will be featured in the upcoming "Ancient Americas" exhibit that will open at the Field Museum in Chicago this March.

"We must continue throughout our lives to do what we conceive to be good. If we have corn and meat, and know of a family that has none, we divide with them. If we have more blankets than are sufficient, and others have not enough, we must give to them that want." Black Hawk, Sauk (1767-1838)
