Harrison, of Swarthmore College, and Anderson, of The Living Tongues Institute, are the stars of Ironbound Films’ The Linguists—an exciting and edifying documentary that follows their quest to document (and save) some of the world’s many endangered languages. GOOD phoned these two intrepid linguists to hear their takes on the importance of language revitalization, the value of intellectual diversity, and the sometimes humbling experience of adventure science.
