Collaboration among contemporary Native American communities and
local public schools is vital for nurturing Native languages.
Although public schools cannot bear the entire burden,
Native-language education will remain on the margins without their
support. Using case studies of school districts on the Flathead
Indian Reservation in Montana, Crossing Mountains provides
important insights about integrating Native-language learning into
public education. Phyllis Ngai argues that carefully designed and
inclusive Native-language programs can benefit communities and
students regardless of ethnic identity by providing for
language-revitalization and promoting intercultural competence.
