Title | Native Languages Proposal Delivered to Obama Administration |
Body | From http://www.culturalsurvival.org/news/united-states/native-languages-proposal-delivered-obama-administration Cultural Survival joined with a dozen Native language advocacy groups this month, including the National Indian Education Association, Morning Star Institute, Indigenous Language Institute, National Alliance to Save Native Languages, and the Native Hawaiian Education Council to request that the Obama Administration implement a White House Initiative on Native Language Revitalization. Members of the groups met with senior policy advisors to the White House on March 2nd to introduce the proposal, which read in part: "This year--the 20th anniversary of the United States’ promise in the Native American Languages Act to assess and coordinate federal efforts to revitalize Native languages--is an ideal time to begin to fulfill that promise and to launch a White House Initiative."
