If your community has a unique way of teaching people a threatened language, I would love to interview you! (esp if you live in Canada).
Even if you think "oh, what we're doing in my community isn't a big deal" DM me anyway!
I want to do a feature story on language revitalisation (or something similar) for my journalism class. I did a story on traditional deer hunting as a means of Kanien'kéha language revitalisation last semester, and I'm trying to build on that.
I'd like to talk to someone before April 1st 2021, preferably over zoom (or over the phone if your internet is too slow).

“ Three Uralic languages benefit from state protection as they are official and the predominant languages in their respective countries: Estonian, Finnish and Hungarian (the latter also enjoys official protection in Hungary's neighbouring countries). The remainder are spoken by much smaller communities living mostly in Russia, as well as Latvia, Norway and Sweden. While some Uralic languages, such as Mari or Udmurt, have between 500,000 to 300,000 speakers, others have about 30,000 speakers, such as the Sámi languages. Others, such as Nganasan, are now believed to be spoken by fewer than 100 people. In Russia, while Uralic languages are officially recognised in the constitution and in theory provided certain cultural rights, new laws have further threatened the passing of minority languages to the next generation of speakers. “
