Donna B. Gerdts

Research on the languages of the Americas has flourished over the past century, even while most of them have diminished in numbers of speakers. With the recognition of the importance of language and identity to health and well-being, many communities are implementing strategies to restore and revitalize their languages. Linguistics provides useful tools for documenting and revitalizing languages, and many indigenous language specialists are becoming linguists in order to serve their communities better. This essay conveys some observations from several indigenous scholars about their career paths in linguistics.
