Introduction
The Minority-Minoritized Languages and Cultures project seeks to provide scholars in the humanities with teaching tools and modules to make lesser-known languages more accessible to non-specialists. The materials here address broad questions related to the language and the community/ies in which it is used such as including political processes, economic processes, and geographic and ethnoreligious borders, the basic features of the language, and propose questions for further study at both the undergraduate and graduate levels and provide an introductory bibliography. We make each module freely available to any scholar in the Humanities.
The modules can be used together as a single course or as stand-alone components to be used across disciplines such as linguistics, anthropology, political science, history, religion, and philosophy to complement already existing courses.
