Amplifying Indigenous Voices at Your Library: Taíno Revival

What will I learn?

The largest Indigenous group in North America is one you've probably never heard of: the Taíno.

They were the first Native Americans encountered by Europeans in 1492. Their language was the lingua franca of the Caribbean, spoken in what is now the Bahamas, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Haiti, Jamaica, Puerto Rico and beyond.

They and their language were thought to have gone extinct hundreds of years ago.

Turns out there are an estimated 17 million+ Taíno descendants living in the United States today. And the world's first digital Taíno language course just launched in Transparent Language Online!

Join us for a live discussion with the driving force behind that Taíno language course, Priscilla Colon.
