Creole languages like Gullah often get left out of #languagerevitalization conversations, but this video makes it beautifully clear how much power, history, and identity they carry, and how important it is to support their reclamation. 🐦🐦
"Languages like #Gullah and Tut are not broken languages, but languages forged as a means to survive. A means to preserve our spirit."
In this video, Ashani Coviello reflects on how she's reclaiming the knowledge, #languages, and power of her ancestors - and passing these on to her daughter.
