The community of Teslin lost some major Tlingit speakers in the last year, including a 99-year-old master yesterday, so much of the show is dedicated to them. Here is what it basically covers:
Words of encouragement
Weather (snow, ice, slippery roads, dangerous driving conditions, cold weather, global warming, Daḵká Lingít know real cold)
Wisdom keepers and elders (losing them, staying strong, acknowledging their bravery, listening to some speakers)
Shuwuteen Martha VanHeel and Lugóon Sophie Smarch conversation, Yanyeidí sisters from Teslin (interviewed in Carcross at a language immersion camp)
Wrap up and encouragement for learners and teachers
Words of encouragement by Herman Davis
