More than 300 American-Indian languages flourished in North America at the time of Columbus, each carrying a unique way of understanding the world.And despite an often-brutal campaign to stamp them out, more than half of those languages have survived, including the Delaware Valley's Lenape, though the pool of speakers has dwindled.Can they be saved?
