ethnic minority networks  

Definición

  • When radio networks first appeared in the early 1920s, ethnic minorities were invisible elements in majority societies, and in many cases were under pressure to abandon their traditions and conform to mainstream culture. If those minorities spoke “foreign” languages (such as those spoken by indigenous peoples including the Maori in New Zealand), their languages might be expected to die off in due time, and in many cases their usage was actively discouraged by educational and religious institutions.
