A delegation of indigenous Ainu people from Japan is in Taranaki this week to share experiences and learn from local Maori about language revitalisation.
Been trying to share from a couple of sites, but here's some beacon of hope.

“I worry that too much fame will bring my daughter bad luck”
It might impact her negatively with the fame of herself, but am nonetheless quite proud for the homeland's main minority continuing on with the beloved tradition of falconry. Long live revitalization of traditions amidst the tech booms. I wish I could've been there personally.

The Ainu, an indigenous people who inhabited the northern part of Japan and part of Russia, produced sacchep, made by drying salmon, as a preserved food and as a commodity from more than 500 years ago. They were deprived of freedom and the right to live in the old way for centuries, and many traditions have been lost. But the Ainu Museum has begun making salmon sacchep again, giving momentum to efforts to preserve Ainu culture.
Even if this was from nearly 7 years ago, it's good that a major foodstuff is being revitalized for the better run. I guess many of you could compare saccep to how rayosi prize kimchi. May this way spread.
