Lakota Educational Video Series

Each month, we will be releasing two new videos for the Lakota Educational Video Series on our Facebook page and YouTube channel.

One video will center on informational tidbits about the Lakota language to help those learning the language grasp some of the nuances of it.

The other video will be a narrative by a fluent Lakota language speaker.

This months videos were on the New Lakota Dictionary (NLD) and a narrative from Johnson Holy Rock.

You can watch the videos by clicking their respective links below.
