Let's sing Uchinaaguchi!

Uchinaaguchi was the language spoken throughout the main island of the Ryukyu kingdom (present-day Okinawa) before it was annexed and occupied by Japan. Due to pressure to assimilate to Japanese society and culture, currently only about 5% of Okinawan people can fully communicate in their own language; a majority of them in their 70's or older.
In an effort to raise awareness and interest in Uchinaaguchi among school children in Okinawa, Brandon Ing [Ufugusuku] (Hawaii-born 4th generation Okinawan, now teaching English at an elementary school in Okinawa), Igor Shin Moromisato, and Eliane Katsumi Gushiken (both Brazil-born 2nd generation Okinawans) worked together to create this animation.

Uchinaaguchi era a língua falada em Okinawa(uma pequena ilha ao Sul do Japão) antes de ela ser anexada. Atualmente somente poucas pessoas conseguem se comunicar nessa língua.
Pensando em difundir a língua, Brandon Ing (Ufugusuku), músico e professor de inglês em uma escola primária em Okinawa, criou essa música e para dar um atrativo e uma maior divulgação Igor Shin Moromisato e a Katsumi fizemos a Animação.
Todos filhos de descendentes de Okinawa
