There is a broad consensus among Indigenous communities and within scholarly discourse concerning the profound and inseparable connection between Indigenous languages and Indigenous ways of knowing and being. This course will begin by examining the centrality of Indigenous languages to Indigenous peoples, as well as their broader societal significance. Building upon this foundation, the course will critically investigate the various factors contributing to Indigenous endangerment and vitality, both within Canada and internationally. Through this exploration, students will engage in a comprehensive analysis of the challenges and strategies associated with Indigenous language revitalization.
