If language is a core symbol of identity and historical preservation, when we stop speaking our own languages, does that make us self-serving? 🤔 What do you think?

Languages aren’t just words, they are like a box filled with our culture & stories. Treasures to take good care of. Preserving our languages by speaking them is super important because they are the heart beat of our African identity. What’s your take on speaking ethnic languages?

My son and daughter are fast learning Yoruba, thanks to Afrobeats. Someone has been listening to Ololufe by Wizkid ft Wandecoal Now he wants to know the meaning of “Iwo lololufe” Join the waitlist on @Speakede to help drive peer to peer language learning by teaching simple words.

We have to grow our roots! That’s the key! The actual foundation! Let’s build a strong one keeping our languages alive, fly our cultures high and being proud of our heritage!

A people without the knowledge of their past history, origin and culture is like a tree without roots. … Marcus Garvey

How do you say “merry Christmas” in your language? Wish you a very happy holiday!
