ABOUT DARYL'S WORK
Daryl Baldwin is a linguist and scholar reviving the linguistic, cultural, and intellectual heritage of the Miami (Myaamia) nation. Forced removal of the Miami nation from their homeland in the Great Lakes region west to the unorganized territory in the nineteenth century scattered the Myaamia people, now numbering around 5,000, across the country and accelerated the decline of the Miami language, which lost its last native speaker in the mid-twentieth century. Through a multipronged approach that is rooted in restoring use of the Miami language, and includes both education and research, Baldwin is imparting important cultural knowledge to present-day Myaamia descendants.

Baldwin, a trained linguist, utilized historical documentation and the work of linguist David Costa to teach himself and his family the language. Baldwin’s efforts to share his love of the language would develop into community-supported summer youth camps. For Baldwin, however, language is inextricably linked to culture and identity, and language reclamation is a critical tool in his larger efforts to empower a healthy and sustainable Myaamia community. To that end, he has helped forge a unique and mutually beneficial tribal-academic partnership with Miami University in Ohio through the Myaamia Center (formerly the Myaamia Project). Jointly directed and funded by the university and the Miami Tribe of Oklahoma, the center undertakes research for the preservation and rediscovery of Myaamia ways of knowing, including projects focused on harvesting practices and seasonal activities and diets; mapping the landscape and land uses of the traditional homeland; reconstructing the traditional Myaamia lunar calendar; documenting Myaamia ethnobotany practices; and development of curricula and training materials for teaching and learning the Miami language. The center also offers educational opportunities for both tribal members and the larger student body of the university.

Baldwin is a mentor and inspiration for other indigenous groups undertaking language revitalization efforts through the National Breath of Life workshops, which provide guidance for accessing and using archival materials held in D.C.-based archives and libraries. Through his long-term, whole systems approach to restoring the linguistic and cultural heritage of the Myaamia people, Baldwin is working with his community and center staff to make available important knowledge and create a hopeful vision for future generations.

关于达里尔的工作
达里尔-鲍德温是一位语言学家和学者,致力于恢复迈阿密(Myaamia)民族的语言、文化和知识遗产。十九世纪,迈阿密民族被强行从他们在大湖区的故乡向西迁移到无组织的领土上,使现在约有5000人的迈阿米亚人分散到全国各地,并加速了迈阿密语言的衰落,在二十世纪中期失去了最后一位母语使用者。通过多管齐下的方法,以恢复迈阿密语言的使用为根基,包括教育和研究,鲍德温正在向今天的迈阿米亚人后裔传授重要的文化知识。

鲍德温是一位训练有素的语言学家,他利用历史文献和语言学家大卫-科斯塔的工作,教自己和家人学习语言。鲍德温为分享他对这种语言的热爱所做的努力将发展成为社区支持的青年夏令营。然而,对鲍德温来说,语言与文化和身份有着千丝万缕的联系,在他为建立一个健康和可持续发展的Myaamia社区所做的更大努力中,语言复兴是一个关键工具。为此,他通过Myaamia中心(前身为Myaamia项目),帮助与俄亥俄州的迈阿密大学建立了独特的、互利的部落-学术伙伴关系。该中心由该大学和俄克拉荷马州的迈阿密部落共同指导和资助,为保护和重新发现迈阿密人的认知方式进行研究,包括专注于收获实践和季节性活动及饮食的项目;绘制传统家园的景观和土地使用图;重建传统的迈阿密农历;记录迈阿密人种植物学实践;以及开发迈阿密语言教学的课程和培训材料。该中心还为部落成员和大学的广大学生提供教育机会。

鲍德温是其他土著群体的导师,并通过 "国家生命之气 "研讨会激励他们进行语言振兴工作,该研讨会为获取和使用华盛顿特区档案馆和图书馆的档案材料提供指导。鲍德温通过他的长期、全系统的方法来恢复Myaamia人的语言和文化遗产,与他的社区和中心的工作人员合作,提供重要的知识,并为后代创造一个充满希望的愿景。

个人简历
达里尔-鲍德温在蒙大拿大学获得学士(1996年)和硕士(1999年)学位,他是俄克拉荷马州迈阿密(Myaamia)部落的公民。他于1991年开始与家人一起工作,后来在1995年帮助发起了社区项目。2001年,他成为迈亚米亚项目的创始董事,该项目在2013年成为迈亚米亚中心,与俄亥俄州的迈阿密大学有联系。
