![["Prentice Robinson has preserved the Cherokee language on cassette tapes, with a focus on the cultural aspect of Indian life. The tapes are aimed at teaching Cherokee language to those with a heritage in it, as well as those who are interested in learning. The tapes have gained interest and have been bought by individuals, schools, and colleges. Prentice Robinson, along with his wife Wilena, have worked on this project since 1974, with Wilena helping to keep their children away from the recording studio. In addition to teaching, Prentice has taken up wood carving as a hobby. The tapes are recorded in a way that does not require a written study guide, allowing for easy learning and replaying of lessons. The Robinsons have two children, Jerome and Lenya."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_30_14_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Cherokee,%201973%20Jan.%20-%201978%20Aug.,%201973-1978/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_30_14_0025_thumbnail.jpg "Preserving Cherokee Language: A Cultural Journey on Cassette Tapes")
