Tribal colleges from South Dakota to Michigan to Minnesota are doing courses in Indian languages. In Wyoming, the Arapaho tribe have set up a school to educate their children in their native language, not English.
Efforts range from college courses and immersion schools for young people to simply recording the languages before the last native speakers die. Across America, similar scenes are being played out as Native American tribes try to revive their languages, many of which are on the edge of extinction.
