The Island InSight series Book 2: Lina’la’ CHamoru
Lina’la’ CHamoru features columns about the taotao tåno’ or indigenous people of Guam. We examine how colonization, Americanization, and globalization have impacted the CHamoru heritage, identity, and language.
The values, traditional practices, and indigenous mata of Guam’s First People are celebrated and promoted as essential for the continuity of peoplehood. Best practices for the recovery, revitalization, and preservation of language as the umbilical cord to culture are harvested from the rich literature of the world’s First Peoples.
