The Lost Languages of the 2020s 🗣️

This video is dedicated to Montgomery Hill, Tuscarora Beaver Clan, who passed away earlier this year. Although I only knew him briefly during my time at the University at Buffalo, his work on Tuscaroran linguistics and Tuscarora revitalization serves as one of the greatest efforts in world history towards language revitalization. May he rest in peace, and may we all work to preserve critically endangered languages.
