The preservation of Native languages is the theme of Vision Maker Media's online free film festival this week. The last remaining speakers of languages are preserving the languages that boarding schools attempted to brutally eliminate.



"Keep Talking' follows four Alaska Native women fighting to save Kodiak Alutiiq, an endangered language now spoken by less than 40 remaining fluent Native Elders."
