Normalizing Chamoru Language Learning
Manage episode 473362972 series 2992873
The majority of the Chamoru people in the world today are unable to speak their native language. To help keep the language a living part of our community, it is imperative that we do away with the stigma of not being able to speak Chamoru and instead focus on normalizing the everyday learning of Chamoru. For this episode of Fanachu, a group of active learners of the Chamoru language from the Marianas and the diaspora shared their experiences.
Appearing as guests on this episode were Jessie Neal, Tristan Quintanilla, Davina Cruz-Armstrong and Janai Limtiaco.
