This Unami-centered event builds upon the Munsee Language and History Symposia that have been held annually at Princeton University and the Institute for Advanced Study since 2021. Language keepers across all Lenape communities, along with local partners, are gathering on Lenape lands in order to gradually strengthen relationships with a particular focus on Lenape language reclamation and revitalization. Representatives of the Delaware Tribe of Indians (Bartlesville, OK) and the Delaware Nation (Anadarko, OK) will be joined by a few Munsee language keepers, along with Princeton students and faculty. Sessions focus on “Lenape Belongings, Lenape Language, Lenape History”; “Lenape'ok, Gender, and Language”; and “Lenape Relationships to Land.”
