 | Navajo Language Academy 2007 The Navajo Language Academy (NLA) is a non-profit educational organization comprised of linguists and language teachers who are devoted to the teaching, scientific study, and promotion of the Navajo language. Language is at the heart of the human experience and is one of our most valuable cultural resources. For indigenous peoples, language represents an immediate link to our ancestors and is a crucial element in maintaining a cultural identity after centuries of conquest and assimilation. Although Navajo is one of the only North American indigenous languages with enough remaining speakers to potentially survive, it is today an endangered language that could easily become another casualty without sufficient resources and support. While most Navajo elders still speak Navajo, recent reports indicate that fewer than 10% of Navajo four-year-olds do. Navajo is not being passed to our youngest generation. At the current rate of attrition, our language is expected to be extinct in a few more generations. If this happens, it would mean that no indigenous language in the United States or Canada will have survived the European conquest and avoided becoming a dead language. The Navajo Language Academy is working to preserve and promote the Navajo language. The NLA, comprised of Navajo linguists and language teachers with advanced training, vast experience and extreme dedication, offers intensive annual workshops on Navajo language pedagogy and linguistics. Growing enrollment in NLA workshops and the large number of articles and books authored or co-authored by NLA-affiliated Navajo linguists over the past decade give testament to the enthusiastic participation of the Navajo community. However, many interested Navajo educators -- including language, math, and science teachers -- are unable to attend the workshops because they cannot afford to. Tax-deductible contributions to the Navajo Language Academy will allow the NLA to provide its training and support of Navajo teacher-scholars through scholarships and stipends and also allow us to bring our training workshops directly to Navajo teachers throughout the Navajo Nation during the school year.

 | Seasons of a Navajo (1984), part 2 of 6 from Raymond A. Bucko's review: "Seasons of the Navajo" follows a year in the life of Dorothy and Chauncey Neboia, an elderly Navajo couple and their extended family who live on the vast Navajo Reservation. Their story, produced as a film in 1984, introduces information about Navajo kinship, descent systems, gender and age roles, ecology, philosophy, religion, domestic space, child life, and economics. Visually rich, the documentary shows the widely varied ecological zones of the Navajo territory. It also presents social interaction among clan members and within a variety of environments and seasonal changes. Extended narratives in the Navajo language and performances of Navajo music and rituals bring a vivid aural dimension. Seasons of the Navajo presents an idyllic portrait of Native life, one that is expected by most high school and college students. Elders are respected, the Native language is spoken and traditional rituals and beliefs guide daily life. Navajo children learn to weave and use natural plants to dye wool; the use of aniline dyes is never mentioned, however. Sheep-dipping, vaccination routines (another intrusion of modernity), and planting and harvesting corn figure into the portrait. The Navajo pray in the sweat lodge which is believed to be the place of creation. They engage in a kinaalda (puberty) ceremony. They are seen as living in harmony with the spiritual world where beauty of the upper world surrounds them in a seemingly easy compromise with the "modern" world outside the reservation. Students certainly should be encouraged to understand the Navajo's ideal world, particularly as expressed by the elders. Chauncey is the strongest voice in this regard. In the ideal world there is, indeed, a kinship with Earth, who is mother. Rituals and prayers using sacred substances, such as pollen, are essential to social and spiritual well-being. Traditional Navajo life endures. However, students also should question what happens, as the film symbolically puts it, when young people no longer wake up at dawn as tradition dictates.
