Appearance On KATC TV

Once again, we thank the Acadiana Center For The Arts for awarding us a grant to support our cultural language project! Our work continues in the creation of the Canneci Tinné Ki Yati – Canneci Tinné Apache Language Dictionary. Thanks to KATC-TV (Lafayette) for highlighting our efforts.

Like many Indigenous people, our language and culture were kept from us for many generations through contact/colonization by both the Spanish and the French in Louisiana. While the dictionary and subsequent language programs are for Tribal Citizens to learn, we are happy to share with our neighbors, outside of the tribe, who would like to learn the Canneci language.
