Indigenous Traditional Knowledge systems and languages are interconnected, carrying essential ecological and cultural wisdom. Our languages hold insights about ecosystems, biodiversity, and sustainable practices passed down for generations. When an Indigenous language disappears, communities— along with the entire world—lose the knowledge embedded within it. Safeguarding these knowledge systems is not only about cultural survival; it’s about utilizing time-tested wisdom to address today’s environmental crises.

In this podcast, we spoke to Donald Soctomah and Dwayne Tomah, two prominent Passamaquoddy historians and cultural preservationists, about a remarkable piece of history: wax cylinders containing some of the earliest audio recordings of the Passamaquoddy people, dating back to 1890. Donald Soctomah, an author, tribal historic preservation officer, and former state legislator, has long worked to protect and revitalize Wabanaki culture and language.
