We Are Our Language: An Ethnography of Language Revitalization in a Northern Athabaskan Community
Barbra A. Meek
Presenting the case of Kaska, an endangered language in an Athabaskan community in the Yukon, the author asserts that language revitalization requires more than just linguistic rehabilitation; it demands a social transformation. The process must mend rips in the social fabric of the language community that result from an enduring colonial history focused on termination.
