Danos, David; Turin, Mark – Language Documentation & Conservation, 2021
For a demise that has been predicted for over 60 years, radio is a remarkably resilient communications medium, and one that warrants deeper examination as a vehicle for the revitalization of historically marginalized and Indigenous languages.

This…
