Honoring Those Who Carried the Language

The Nuu-da’ Mv-ne’ is built upon the voices, memories, and dedication of many individuals—language speakers, cultural knowledge holders, linguists, teachers, and community leaders—who have contributed to the survival of our languages.


This page is dedicated to sharing the stories of those who made this work possible. Their lives and legacies offer not only context to the materials in this archive but also inspiration for ongoing language revitalization. We are adding to this list as we are able and would love to work with community members to highlight the contributions of their own family members or teachers to our language's revival!
