Because few children grow up learning to speak the Lakota language, efforts have been made to preserve language samples and artifacts in tribal areas. These efforts include: - A participatory social media platform built by LiveandTell - Preserving language samples and cultural knowledge. - creating visual dictionaries of images tagged with Lakota terms - uploading school projects to community websites - using participatory social media technology like YouTube and Flickr
