Indigenous language revitalization
The Polyglot is passionate about Indigenous language revitalization.
With the film below, we officially launched nimitêyaniy and nitêh, two issues of poetry and art curated by Naomi McIlwraith and Dorothy Thunder. The film features 20 of our 36 contributors and was shown at the Edmonton Poetry Festival and LitFest in 2020. In this video, you will hear poetry and art weaving Anishinaabemowin, Dene Dháh, Dene Yatié, Denesułįné, Hul’qumi’num, Inuktitut, Michif, Mi'kmaq, Mi'gmaq, nêhiyawêwin, nīhithawīwin, Sahtúot’ı̨nę Yatı, Sm’algya̱x , Stoney Nakoda, and ᏣᎳᎩ.
These issues were generously funded by the Edmonton Arts Council.
