    "title": "Business as Usual? Crises and the Futures for Indigenous Language Work in the Age of COVID",
    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "<p>Working across multiple ethnographic contexts, this paper surveys the use of digital technologies in language reclamation projects, considering what these mean for anthropologists, archivists, and community members as well as accompanying visions of crisis and futurity. Drawing on experiences working as part of Pueblo language reclamation projects, I consider the ways that tribal members have utilized new practices with digital technologies since the onset of the pandemic. The second part of the paper explores how digital tools can be used to store, analyze, and grant access to Indigenous languages by comparing the approaches to digital language archiving used by the website <em>Ethnologue </em>and by users of the Mukurtu content management system. I conclude with a discussion of what these new media practices tell us about differing visions of crisis and the imagined futures for both community members and academics.</p>",
