"Language in Lights" - World Listening Day

"Language in Lights" -- For World Listening Day, friends of the Overpass Light Brigade, the Electa Quinney Institute, and In-Na-Po call on us to listen to all of the languages around us:

"Indigenous languages echo the knowledge about stewardship of land, water, and life. Indigenous languages allow ancestors to speak through descendants and together they acknowledge the place of humanity in the universal web. Enjoy the play of light and language as some of the Indigenous languages spoken today in Milwaukee, Wisconsin take shape in the night. Consider: How will you listen in 2022? What poetry will you find, what poetry will find you, when you listen?"
