When a Language Disappears, a Story Is Lost. | Phillip Grager | TEDxMiami Country Day School

Every two weeks, a language dies, taking an entire worldview with it. Phillip explores how preserving language is not about saving the past, but about protecting identity, culture, and our shared human future. Language is more than words. It carries memory, identity, and culture. Phillip Grager shares his work preserving endangered languages and traditions, shaped by hands-on experiences with Indigenous communities both locally and abroad. His talk reminds us that cultural preservation is not abstract or distant. It is personal, urgent, and deeply human. Through curiosity and action, Phillip shows how students can help protect the stories that define who we are. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
