Hey Robtel! I finally made an account here. Good to see you.

Thanks for sharing my words on such an important topic.

"In a country of over 500 indigenous languages, where at least 29 are already extinct & more are endangered, this policy...is an act of erasure, an epistemic violence, a clarion call for recolonisation. Each lost language takes with it a universe of knowledge, aesthetics and ethics."

Pure 🔥🔥

This is a wonderful critique of a recent decree to silence indigenous languages in educational settings in Nigeria, or as the author so aptly puts it, "On the Silencing of our Tongues." I wish the Lagos Review was here to add to the BLK Sky conversation.
