Aniin, Twitter! Welcome to #Biskaabiiyaang, a new Indigenous-led #metaverse teaching cultural competency skills and Anishinaabemowin (the #Ojibwe language). We’ll share project updates & sneak previews here and at biskaabiiyaang.com. Join us on the path to Biskaabiiyaang!

History:
Our project began as a card-based RPG created by @Maya_Chacaby to teach Anishinaabemowin in the classroom. Following the game’s success, Prof. Chacaby wanted everyone to have access to social #indigenouslanguage learning: #Biskaabiiyaang was born! biskaabiiyaang.com/learn-mor…

Thanks for liking @SarahbaxterSTM. You mention in your article that children were beaten for speaking their own language. Thankfully, work goes on today to keep these tongues alive, see, youtu.be/wB3neJ8ZUmc

Indigenous folks,
Be cautious of people who want to "pick your brain" over coffee and lunch. There are people out there stealing ideas and boosting their careers for the price of a double double.
