Native American Language Preserved Through Art

It's no secret that Native American languages are dying. I've already written an article here that describes it. But there are people preserving the languages through art. Notably the Jim Jarmusch film Dead Man uses intentionally un-subtitled passages in both Cree and Blackfoot language. Films like this that are well researched a free of common stereotypes need to become more commonplace.

Blue Corn Comics is proposing the release of a graphic novel written entirely in Native American languages. They say that they propose this project because of the fact that very few literary works are actually written in Indian tongue, and those that are, are textbooks or childrens books. This is an attempt to keep teenagers and young adults from abandoning their native language.
