  • One of the most significant losses to the Native American culture is the loss of the indigenous language. This talk addresses the need to revitalize the Menominee Native American language.
    NOTE: The opening and closing moments of this talk are spoken in the endangered Menominee language, currently understood by only a few dozen people worldwide. English subtitles have been provided, and should appear soon after the video is posted. English translations of those segments follow:
    ----------Opening----------
    My fellow Menominee, all my relations and everyone who is present here. Thank you I say to all of you for gathering here. Now I will speak a little...
    I am from the land of the Menominee and I am Bear clan. My grandmother comes from Keshena, Enae:mae:hku:kiw is my mother, Ne:powew-awae:hsaeh is my father, Mahwae:hsaeh is my brother, Ne:pen-a:nakwatu:kiw is my sister. My wife is Awae:hse:saeh and we have 5 children. First born is Omiyosokwewo-opimohtet, then my daughter Waqseci:wan, my son Ci:na:nakwat and also my daughter Nani:maqowiakiw. My last born is Maeqnakwahku:kiw I also have one grandson: he is Powehkaneh.
    ----------Closing----------
    When I think about what it means to be Menominee I know that learning our language did a lot for me. As we continue into the future we must remember our ancestors, our fellow living beings, and those still to come in the future. All my relations, that is it.
    Ron (Muqsahkwat) Corn, Jr. is a member of the Menominee Nation, a nation with a history in what is now called Wisconsin, that goes back farther than any other modern group of people.
    Ron takes pride in being called a language warrior, and over the course of his life he has fought to maintain, preserve and now revitalize the unique dialect of Algonquin language. As groups continue to grow, it only matters if traditional culture and heritage teachings are honored and it has been Ron's great struggle to innovate and develop these skills to pass on to other members of the proud nation of the Menominee people. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

      @Sour D I think they mean that these languages aren't acknowledged or supported by the rest of America, and only kept to their tribes. That's exactly how language dies, when the world moves past it, they need to be more integrated into society

But it carries a wonderful message that allows you to reflect back on the book once you are through with it.

So then that made even more sweeter to teaser. R.I.P. MS. KIYANII. And to my other Native relatives, young or old, it's never too late to learn your langauge. It's like the ABCs.

    Boozhoo indizhinikaaz Miskobenaise. Thanks for highlighting our people. As we say in the Midwest lake superior, Minnesota territory Ojibwe Land, Anishinabe (The Original People/One Nation) we are glad to see a OshKosh Ogichidaag up here showing these people an allowing your story to do the Educating. As all elders an warriors do, we all have similar stories. Luckily for me I grew up on the rez an moved to Minneapolis. So many people say "Where are you from? Omg your handsome you resemble a Bruno Mars type of guy." Mind you I'm 235lbs 6'1 like many of our people on the rez. We literally have to explain ourselves to some people who grew up prejudice an thinking because they have not seen a native so therefore, they treat us like history books an icons/Mascots... I had so many people an women come around me because of the stuff our elders taught us, stories told to us make us literally interesting to other people who didn't grow up seeing or hearing of traditional native Americans. The city natives even made fun of me for being "Rezzed out"... but all there girlfriends an mommas saying I was so respectful an helping. I now hear the word simp. Because I still treat women how I would want my mother treated... some of our values literally got to be taught from the day we Start learning an talking. I knew the words bizaan an maagon (be quiet an Go then) ...

      ​@@BreninCyhyr the Navajo have offered us to learn their language so we can rekindle our understanding of how to work with the land. If we don't extend ourselves to understand indigenous people and what they are saying, the more they have to speak the colonial language which contributes to misinformation between people's, and their decline. It's not inappropriate to learn any language.

    There are under 9,000 Menominee people living today, so while it would be nice to preserve the language, you would also only be able to communicate with a relative handful of Native American people with it. To communicate with the remainder, you would have to learn apx. 175 other languages. Sad though it is, languages have died and been subsumed by other languages throughout human history. English is nothing like the languages spoken by the ancient inhabitants of the British Isles. It is not even that close to the original English language. Languages are in fact subject to alteration and decay like everything else in life. If one's identity depended on one's language, the entire world would be in a perpetual state of identity crises. The tendency seems to be away from multiplicity of languages and toward language unification, the de-babelization of language. I am not knocking learning more obscure or native languages. People still delight in learning Old English, even though it is completely impractical in terms of its utility for day to day communication. I can totally understand why someone would want to learn the original language of his or her ancestors, even if its practical utility was limited. And I understand the nostalgic sadness that accompanies the passing of any vital cultural inheritance, but particularly something as central to our humanity as our language, our means of communication. It is not unlike that feeling that accompanies the passing of a distinct animal or plant species that will never rise again. At the same time, the importance of language preservation can be overstated. Languages have had varying histories and lifespans throughout time and there is indeed great benefits to be derived from language commonality that I think is sometimes overlooked.

      Clearly you do not understand language vitality and historical or cultural preservation as it pertains to sovereignty and federal recognition.
      Nice try... your passive aggressive opinion is unresearched and unnecessary.

    I am 100% stunned that, to this day, people refer to Natives as if they were one culture . It is a perpetuated myth. By the way NOT ONE of the tribes or Native Nations called themselves "American". Native American is a feel good term with no basis of documented history.

    Ilove the flow of indigenous language - I'm taking (beginning!) Cherokee - in online dideloquasdi (school/ classes/ education) - with first Language speaker Ed Fields -
    Similar to Menomonie, in Cherokee verb options are for myself, you, he/she and they (more than one) without gender designations.
    And as Bob mentions - we aquire a mountain ⛰ of words ... and gradually begin to understand depth, context, deeper meanings ...
    a lifelong learning project!

    As far as repatriation remains, how can anyone talk for someone who has been dead so long?
    Do you know their religion? How? Assumption? Thousands of cultures dig up their ancestors and would be offended if you didn't allow them.
    I would love it if someone dug me up in 500 years to learn about me, which is totally contrary to my sister's opinion. My sister should not have the right to speak for me.
