One Million Like$ Say Haiti’s Mother Tongue is Good Enough

VoicesfromHaiti’s INNERview with MIT Linguistics professor Michel DeGraff reveals much about the educator and the man. At the heart of our August, 2011 conversation was the idea that teaching children core subjects in the language which they already know inside and out works. The National Science Foundation agrees.  DeGraff’s linguistics program receives a million dollars to continue a work that tries to prove simply that Kreyòl is good enough. Congratulations, Prof. Michel DeGraff!
