Never Gonna Let The Language Go Away

As part of the CBAA National Features and Documentary Series, MJ Bakewell’s Never Gonna Let The Language Go Away analyses the curious case of Indigenous language in the Alice Springs, an area which features seventeen Aboriginal languages spoken but only one Aboriginal interpreter service since 2000.

MJ Bakewell looks at the legacy of one Yankuntyjatjara man to look closely at the history of the recognition of Aboriginal languages in Australia, and how far we have yet to go.
