I don't know if in USA tribes have their language as official in reservations, but in my opinion every state should have official native language beside english. Native Americans are the original people of Americas, I mean people who lived there prior to Columbus, so they should have their language coofficial with english or spanish.
Europe has about 30-40 languages. Some are being revived again, such as Celtic languages in British isles.
Good information...i am now in the Meskwaki Language class in Tama. Although there are only 5 of us, this is a start. Very similar languages, i could understand most of it without reading the words. I will be showing this to my class. Kickapoo in Texas??? Very similar also...Byetweyakega

This is the Sauk Language Department's film from the Sac and Fox Nation based in Stroud, OK. Where are you studying? I just learned recently that Kickapoo is extremely similar to Sauk/Meskwaki. Are you familiar w/ the Kickapoo in TX? I met some Ojibwe folks today from MI who were really impressed with the Kickapoo speaker community in TX.
I've been studying Sauk/Fox/Kickapoo for a couple of months now. Was this video made by the Sauk-Fox near Stroud, Oklahoma, or the Nemaha Sauk near the Kansas-Nebraska border?
Language loss is sad, as is the oppressive way it is achieved. Not only in the US, but in many countries throughout the world, (including Japan, Russia, numerous Central and South American countries, and many more) languages of weaker indigenous populations have been suppressed and obliterated in the name of modernization and territorial expansion.
Good luck in the reviving your ancestral language and culture.
Great video
