The Aanjibimaadizing, a program of the Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe, is committed to keeping Indigenous language thriving.

To help this mission along they launched a project to bring their language to the pages of a multi-book series. Native America Calling is putting the spotlight on the latest book in the collection “Gaa-Pi-Izhiwebak.”

The book features stories that stem from cultural teachings, histories and memories that a group of tribal elders hold dear.

Native America Calling will hear from those involved in the project including the book’s illustrator who had the charge of rendering elders’ stories into colorful images.
