Next on Independent Lens: We Still Live Here
Founding Series Producer of Independent Lens Lois Vossen, honors Native American Heritage Month by setting up the documentary We Still Live Here - As Nutayunean. The film, by Anne Makepeace, premieres on Thursday, November 17 on PBS.
The Wampanoag nation of southeastern Massachusetts ensured the survival of the Pilgrims in New England, and lived to regret it. We Still Live Here - Âs Nutayuneân tells the story of the return of the Wampanoag language, the first time a language with no Native speakers has been revived in this country. Spurred on by an indomitable linguist named Jessie Little Doe, the Wampanoag are bringing their language and their culture back.
