Notebooks of Heritage: Reclaiming Traditions of the Ainu People
The Ainu are an ethnic minority indigenous to Japan. Since their culture and language had mainly been passed down orally, much of their traditions and language have been lost or forgotten. Kuzuno Tatsujiro was an Ainu man who was called Ekashi, which means "respectable elder" in the Ainu language. To preserve Ainu culture for coming generations, he spent his life documenting Ainu traditions and language on about 100 notebooks. Now, about 20 years after Tatsujiro's death, his young grandson Daiki is studying the notebooks to reclaim the Ainu culture and keep it alive.
