Frank Brannon, "Cherokee Printing: When Ross Landing Became Chattanooga"

Cherokee is among the 50-90% of the world's total languages anticipated to be extinct by 2100. The printing of Cherokee began just prior to the tumultuous time of the Trail of Tears. Join Virginia Foundation for the Humanities Fellow Frank Brannon, an independent educator and scholar, as he describes the history of Cherokee printing, and an artist's efforts to support the revitalization of an indigenous language in the twenty-first century.
