Abstract | Argues for new analysis of language rights of Native-American students as enunciated in the Native American Languages Act (NALA). Current efforts to model federal legislation on "English Only" referenda potentially violate NALA's statement of rights and policy in favor of supporting students' native languages. Does not take into account unique social ills confronting Native Americans, including danger of language extinction and cultural extermination. (75 footnotes) (MLF) |
