Why preserving Indigenous languages is so critical to culture

Language, if we are not thinking about it, can be just a way to get from place A to B, a way to order lunch or a way to pass an exam.  But language is much more than a way to communicate with words. This is especially true if you have had your language forcibly removed from you, like the thousands of Indigenous children who survived Canada's colonial assimilation project.Languages hold within them philosophies, worldviews, culture and identity.Language also has a lot to do with our relationships — how we relate to other people, to our families, to our ancestors and to the natural environment.These are precisely the aspects of Indigenous life that the Indian Residential School system was designed to destroy.  Last year, the United Nations acknowledged the importance of Indigenous languages by declaring the decade ahead to be the International Decade of Indigenous Languages.But long before the UN declaration, First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples have been pushing to revitalize more than 70 Indigenous languages across Canada.  In 2019, the Indigenous Languages Act was passed by the government of Canada.Still, progress — and redress — have been slow to come.In this special episode of Don't Call Me Resilient, as we look ahead to National Indigenous Peoples Day, guest host, Veldon Coburn speaks with Prof. Frank Deer, Canada Research Chair and associate dean of Indigenous Education at the University of Manitoba. They tackle the issue of disappearing Indigenous languages and delve into how much more needs to be done to revitalize them and why doing so is critical.This week's episode was produced in collaboration with IndigiNews and their publisher, Eden Fineday.

Approximately 7,000 languages are signed or spoken in the world today, more than half of them by Indigenous people. These languages are critical to services like education and healthcare, and their neglect threatens the health and wellbeing of Indigenous people. Language is literally a matter of life and death. The United Nations has declared 2022 the start of the International Decade of Indigenous Languages, highlighting the need for governments and societies to amplify the voices and knowledge of Indigenous peoples globally, and involve them directly in the process. However, in Asia's largest and most linguistically diverse countries, human rights defenders and civil society are under attack, creating a climate of fear that poses serious challenges to successfully implementing the International Decade of Indigenous Languages. This event launched the new issue of the La Trobe Asia Brief: Indigenous Language Rights and the Politics of Fear in Asia, authored by Gerald Roche, Madoka Hammine and Tuting Hernandez.

The Rosetta Stone is famous as an inscription that let us read Egyptian hieroglyphs again, but it was created in the first place as part of a long history of signage as performative multilingualism in public places. Choosing between languages is both very personal but it's not only personal -- it's also a reflection of the way that the societies we live in constrain our choices.

The United Nations' declaration of the International Decade of Indigenous Languages (2022-2032) raises a critical issue: Indigenous languages are in an endangered state. The UN's declaration is hoped to spur preservation and promotion of them and curb the tide of extinction. Papua New Guinea holds more Indigenous languages than anywhere else in the world. Current estimates of its living languages are between 830 to over 850, but that number is in steady decline as Papua New Guinea's communities become more mobile and interconnected. Yet, while extinction to local languages remains a severe problem in Papua New Guinea, in 2020, a new language was added to its list – and there's potential for more. Jessica Collins, the Lowy Institute's Research Fellow for the Aus-PNG Network and Pacific Islands Program, talks with four experts about language, diversity, and cultural identity in Papua New Guinea. The panel includes Dr Kilala Devette-Chee, Senior Research Fellow and Program Leader of the Education Research Program at the Papua New Guinea National Research Institute; Dr Sakarepe Kamene, Head of Linguistics and Modern Languages at the University of Papua New Guinea; Adjunct Professor Craig Volker, of The Cairns Institute, James Cook University; and Dr. Lidia Federica Mazzitelli, post-doctoral researcher at the Slavic Institute, University of Cologne and scientific consultant at the Australian National University.

[Note: This program was produced & recorded in 2017] Needless to say, most of you are extremely aware that we are indeed living in a moment that implores each and every one of us to have a clear, resolute, and radical perspective of one's own position in the current sociopolitical environment as well as develop strategies that are broadly informed to address present and coming forms of marginalization. To be clear…the current systemic forms of violence—that is legal, physical, economic, cultural, political, and social—are not new phenomena to Africans and people of African descent. I say this because historically, the naked imposition of power as exhibited through the mechanisms of racial capitalism—chattel slavery; colonialism, neocolonialism; settler colonialism; Jim Crow; Apartheid—has often manifested itself in the material and nonmaterial life of the African world. The difference today…by most accounts is the reconstitution of these older forms of marginalization in a new time and space. The idea of progress is wedded to the movement of time—history. The standard equation reads that the further away we move from something the smaller or the further away we move from that point. So, this accepted understanding brings us to a deep problem…time is often materially bound to structures that are constructed to support various forms of social, political, cultural, and economic relations that are relative to the worldview of those who are in positions of perceived power or authority. Being so, it becomes the work of the radical intellectual—the radical black intellectual in our case—to dig at the root of these structures…pushing the foundations of these structures, systems, and institutions to expand, include, or break! I sat down with M1 of Dead Prez to explore his work, political activity, and the importance of the relationship between cultural production and strategy…in our current moment… When then turn our attention to the International Decade for People of African Descent. The UN General Assembly has proclaimed 2015-2024 as the International Decade for People of African Descent citing the need to strengthen national, regional and international cooperation in relation to the full enjoyment of economic, social, cultural, civil and political rights by people of African descent, and their full and equal participation in all aspects of society. Today, we will contribute to this mandate by paying tribute to the people of African descent in the U.S. history month by listening to various speeches by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. One of the most often overlooked aspects of Dr. Martin Luther King in his evolution within the Black freedom movement is his ever evolving internationalism—and growth toward embracing a more radical fight against racism—imperialism—and colonialism…Although we have been inundated with sound bites and narrow frames of reference when exploring Dr. King…Dr. King's activism in many respects was just as evolutionary as El Hajj Malik Shabazz—the ends on the same pole...Dr.King was living in revolutionary times that was grounded and guided by the foundation set by the work of towering international left activist such as Paul Robeson, W. E. B. Du Bois, William Patterson, James and Esther Jackson, National Negro Congress, an early more radical NAACP …In fact, it is often lost that Dr. King in his last book—was keenly aware of the importance of the international struggle. With the help of a compilation produced by Dj Sese titled: Liberating Dr. King: The L is Coming, we will be exposed to Dr. King from a decidedly radical perspective (Big shout-out to @imixwhatilike). Our show was produced today in solidarity with the Native/Indigenous, African, and Afro Descendant communities at Standing Rock, Venezuela, Brazil, Colombia, Kenya, Palestine, South Africa, and Ghana and other places who are fighting for the protection of our land for the benefit of all peoples!

Twitter bots and trolls on bush fires Could the latest orchestrated social media disinformation campaign be unfolding in Australia. Researchers at the Queensland University of Technology have been analysing thousands of tweets and found some concerning activity. Could paid for trolls be behind tweets suggesting that arsonists are responsible for this year’s bush fires?

It is to begin in 2022, so we have been finding out about getting indigenous languages onto a device – and it isn’t always as hard as you think.

The decade from 2015 to 2024 has been proclaimed the International Decade for People of African Descent by the UN. The UN advise all states to "Celebrate the launch of the International Decade at the national level, and develop national programmes of action and activities for the full and effective implementation of the Decade". However, in Norway, the state has not taken any initiative regarding the Decade, and they are not planning to. Why is the Decade not a priority for the government? Approximately 100 000 people living in Norway today are of African decent. What challenges do they experience growing up and living in the Norwegian society, and how does this influence their sense of identity? How has Norway historically treated people of African decent?

In western countries, people of African Descent are the most targeted group when it comes to violent hate crimes and discrimination. In this podcast we sat down to discuss and learn more about a UN platform that aims to combat this: the International Decade for People of African Descent (the Decade). The podcast features an RWI Visiting Researcher, Michael McEachrane, who recently attended the Decades regional meeting in Geneva. He also helped the OHCHR to develop the conference program. The Decade was proclaimed in resolution 68/237 by the General Assembly and is to be observed from 2015 to 2024. It provides a solid framework for the United Nations, Member States, civil society and all other relevant actors to join together with people of African descent. They will work together to create and take effective measures for the implementation of the programme of activities in the spirit of recognition, justice and development. “The Decade is an opportunity for people of African descent to promote our interests and concerns and so forth. The decade is a vehicle for us” In this podcast, we discuss why the Decade is important, the draft on the upcoming UN Declaration on people of African Descent and about identifying ongoing structures to create improvements.
