Penobscot Language Signage<\/strong><\/p>\n

The University of Maine<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Signage project builds on conversations that have developed over the last few years in the Wabanaki Center and Wabanaki communities in the State of Maine regarding the relative invisibility of Indigenous people, history, and languages at the University of Maine to foster reconciliation by sharing about Penobscot language, values, and people 1 to restore meaning and knowledge.<\/em>
\nBilingual English and Penobscot language signage will foster an awareness of the presence of multiple, living languages.<\/p>\n
