Our Cherokee Nation and Principal Chief Chuck Hoskin Jr. is bringing us another opportunity to help save our beautiful language, the root of our culture.
Come join us for a Cherokee language class taught by Cherokee Nation teachers. Let’s learn together and help preserve and perpetuate our language as a cornerstone of culture! This course will involve up to 30 hours of instruction.
Schedule:
Virtually, Tues-Wed-Thurs, March 17-18-19, 6-8 pm Pacific Time
In-person, Sat-Sun, March 21-22, 9 am - 4 pm Pacific time in Sacramento, CA
Face-to-face Cherokee Nation teacher interaction for one full weekend
Virtually, Tues-Wed-Thurs, March 24-25-26, 6-8 pm Pacific Time
Your Cherokee Nation is paying for everything and working with your local affiliated at-large organization, Cherokees of the Northern Central Valley (Sacramento, CA), to assist with the arrangements.
What we need from you is a commitment of time and energy. Every two weeks, research indicates, a language is lost. Be a part of the historical renaissance of our existence by committing time and energy into attending online courses and one full weekend of in-person study by language instructors of the Cherokee Nation.
