I assume you are here for college and were assigned to to do a documentary? Trim? Tremay It’s all good. Glad to have you here. Well not here in Nashville, but in my South Louisiana home. ;)
Anyway,I do owe Haiti 🇭🇹 a lot of respect 🙌 cause they contributed much more in what USA represents today. They fought for USA to be free while they were not. They shed blood but impoverished by France and USA
The Actual and original Definition of Creole was anybody white black or mixed who was born in the French colony. from master, yeoman farmers to free persons of color is what Creole originally meant. as time went on it developed into a complex and refined culture often times within itself.
Best thing about being Creole is that we don't go through a new identity phase and terminology like....another ethnicity. The masses still have a hard time understanding what it is and most rarely hear about us, which can be a good thing that keeps us sacred and protected, and not "fetishized"....again, like 'another identity.' And even as a proud Creole, I am also proud to be apart of the black' race.
Sorry, Liz - I hate to say it, but this is one of the worst explanations of Creoles and our culture I’ve seen yet. Wishing you the best of luck on future videos.
This documentary is not fully accurate it's from an Americans perspective it erased Indian Ancestry and also says the Free Person of Color comes from Haiti.

I'm from Louisiana, cajuns are the French that came from Canada, creoles are the black people that mixed with the French, cajuns, Spanish, and native Americans etc. Cajun and creole culture have a lotta similarities tho
@@elboogie3373 That is a definition some people use but which with others disagree. Your statement proves my point of there being various and strong opinions. Geaux Tigers!
@@TXMEDRGR Yeah, I guess you're right, I even heard two people arguing because one of them said he was cajun, but the other guy said he wasn't cajun, he was french. So, you have a point. Geaux tigers!!!
@@elboogie3373 Because Cajuns are technically a sub group of Louisiana creoles and intermixed with the local French creoles of the area when they first arrived. And Creoles are usually of predominant Black,French,Spanish or native ancestry and just that or they’re ethnically/racially mixed. Even were some German and Italian creoles as well
OMG....did she just "TRIM" for "TREME!" you should learn the pronounce things correctly! This documentary was whacked! has nothing to do w/CREOLE CULTURE!
@@mamuwaldevoudoupractitione3518 and i thought i was the only one who BLAST TRUTH on UA-cam! Go head, Sista. All of Us Black Americans are not so self-hating as you claim tho. And let's be honest Sis....it was the Africans of antiquity that literally SOLD US OUT. they bear some responsibility in the enslavement of millions of African beings by the wite man. So impressed with his adornments apparel trinkets and liquor that they traded other Black People fot the devil's poison. BLACK AFRICA IS NOT BLAMELESS in the oppression of African beings all throughout the diaspora, Sis. If we're gonna be real, let's be all the way real.
They are triracial and not just black. There's a difference between creoles and african americans. African Americans part of the Transatlantic slave trade as a result of British, are dissimilar to creoles of Louisiana, in regards to culture, language, and triracial backgrounds. Creoles of Louisiana are descendants of Haitians, french, Spanish and native american. African Americans are mixed with British, Irish to a small degree, the ones part of the colonies, so to speak. Creoles have a large percentage of European ancestry compared to African Americans. Also, worth mentioning, is that some creoles have little or no African ancestry. Some are french and Spanish only, and others are french or Spanish with Native American ancestry, but no African. To lump creoles and African Americans in the same category, is blatantly false.
@Jamon’e M for real I remember when on Twitter they said their creole culture and language was the original one and the better one, better than the Louisiana one and the creole cultures in the French West Indies, they need to stop
@Jamon’e M for real I respect the country because they were the first to fight white people and get free but they need to stop with that bullshit claiming beyoncé and shit,disrespecting others
The term Creole is not unique to Louisiana, there are Creoles in Sierra Leone. They are the descendants of Blacks who fought for the British in the American Revolution and were first settled in Canada and later taken to Africa. Freetown was established for said freed Blacks.
@@jojosaylor8996 There are Creoles in other countries and other parts of the US as well, Louisiana doesn't have a patent on the term Creole. Louisiana Creoles are the French born in Americas but the word isn't even a French word.
Yep the word yam is African as well many foods and dishes we eat are African in origin my family still have Congolese dishes and culture mixed in with others we still practice ancestors worship through Palo and Hatian vodou
"Creole" comes from Portuguese "crioulo" and the term was used to describe the New World born descendants of slaves. When you read lists of slaves of the time those who were born in the Americas, either if it was in Brazil, Cuba, USA or elsewhere were described as "creoles" while enslaved people brought from Africa were usually described by their ethnicity or origin like "Angola", "Congo", "Loango", "Ibo", "Fon" or something else.
Jose Carlos Costa creole in new orleans come from the Haitians that where brought here people love to leave that out “the whites love to steal cultures”
That isn't what Creole means. The word is gone to multiple Innovations but it has always been associated with a culture not an ethnicity race or nationality. Louisiana Creole in Mississippi Creole is also called African-American Creole. Louisiana Creole is a subculture of African-American. It's based on the region. Just like the Gullah people in the Carolinas
Love this documentary! I can’t watch it enough!
That's smart to have your business underneath your home
❤️ Great video 🥰 Creole love

We will always be ignorantly mistaken for our friends from Haiti
Thank you for pointing this out! 🇭🇹❤️
Love the music.
Djé Beni Vouzót. 💯
Love this thank you for this great history 😊
Why not do a documentary about Creole culture featuring actual Creoles? We’re not hard to find.
They're not talking about Creole Indians!! They're talking about the creole people's of Louisiana! Jesus Christ
Anyway,I do owe Haiti 🇭🇹 a lot of respect 🙌 cause they contributed much more in what USA represents today. They fought for USA to be free while they were not. They shed blood but impoverished by France and USA
What do you mean they fought for USA to be free?
@@missshannon9790 You can do your research the Haitians sent troops in 1776 to help USA fight for their independence.
@@labelle8110that's tether babbling lies.
@@CertifiedKyl504 Your response itself shows a lack of vocabulary and education. This is well known history in academia.

The term is used nationally Belizean creole, Haitian creole, Mauritian Creole etc

Even in Louisiana there is disagreement about the differences between Creoles and Cajuns. People have strong opinions on the subject.

Don't Belong Here, From Another Planet yea okay just like Afro Latinos aren’t black they Spanish
African heritage was already in New Orleans before the Haitians emigrated there.
Hmmm...which african cultures before the haitians?

A couple from Los Angeles and a homeless man explaining what Creole is. Great!
African american is code word for black indian american
Cre ole old crees?

Exactly

I NEED TO GO TO NAWLINS ❤❤❤
We are called Creole! We all have Dominican blood!! The Caribbean means Creolean! Fuck the white mans one drop rule in 1924-1985!!
Haitian people white and black who left Haiti

French and Spanish mixed race people were in The Louisiana and Florida territory for 100 years before the Haitians came by Boat. Read a book.
Learn your history lesson in school and get an understanding. Toney Tillery Isaiah.
Zydeco is Cajun culture, not Creole. 🤦🏾♀️ - an actual New Orleanian
Źydéço music culture was created by Black-LaLwizyànans here in Louisiana not by Cajuns.
this is not true there is allot of hidden racism in it not all of this video is true
Luckily most of the people who watching put it together and your right it is racist

No its not African at all. Its French born in Americas

We know the term Creole isn’t unique to Louisiana
Gumbo is actually the word for okra in Wollof, a West African language. Gumbo is also a national dish of Togo, a country in West Africa.
Belle Pierre has nothing to do with Spanish

Zero to do with New Orleans.
