    (Part 4) That didn't stop him from surppressing this knowledge of himself and still have a policy of ethnic cleansing of Afro-Haitian-Dominican people. Haitians were never forgiven for their revolution. Their fight for freedom therefore, anything Haitian will always be demonized and made to be bad to the world.

      Definitely not in my sight are they not forgiven, as a matter of fact I admire any oppressed ( Human) population who fervently resisted thier inhuman oppressors. No one is above God's law ,not even the viled privileged.

      And lest people forget.And many historians agree that if there was no Haitian Revolution perhaps the Louisiana Purchase might not have been procured as quickly.The territory purchased by the US from France opened up strategic ports of entry from the gulf of Mexico to the Canadian Border.Allowing the US to grow exponentially economically.What did the new Haitian Republic receive in return?A nearly worldwide embargo by the powers that be at the time.France,Britain and Spain.And the fledgeling United States was no help at all.Columbia and Venezuela made attempts to establish trade relations with Haiti but incurred the wrath of the world powers.My maternal grandparents were both French speaking creoles from Louisiana.My grandmother's ancestors came from Haiti to Louisiana as slaves in the 1700s.My grandfather's ancestors came from Haiti to Louisiana as free people of color in the early 1800s.

    Thank you for sharing the truth. USA would not be the USA it is today if it wasnt for the Haitian Revolution that forced France to sell the entire state of Louisiana to the US. After the Haitian revolution, 1/3 of Haitians immigrated to New Orleans and being more educated from the land they came from and they played a major part in what the culture of New Orleans is today. Most of the free blacks in New Orleans were Haitians who left Saint Domingue and some of them were actually wealthy. This is why in the battle for New Orleans, the first time Americans came to the land, they were confused as this was the first time they saw Elite blacks mixed with French white living and breathing together... then we all know what happened,..they had to F#$ it up..smh!!!

Some history of the Island of Hispaniola was never documented and you wouldn't have knowledge of certain things unless you were from there. WhereYaBoss is right about it being a short boat ride.

    I wish this culture were still alive today. The south of Louisiana should separate from the north of Louisiana. Then that new state would be officially Francophone and both the Creole and the Cajun cultures could revive.

    • @JLDReactions
      @JLDReactions 6 років тому +4

      @Terioze9 That would never work because most South Louisianans don't want to make the effort to learn French or Creole. I live in New Orleans. Also, creole society was also alive in Natchitoches and Central Louisiana so it wouldn't make sense for the south to separate. Trust me, if we wanted to learn French, we'd do it but like I said, very few people want to learn it. They're all talk. I would say young Cajuns from the Lafayette area are doing the best to preserve their French. They are the only ones really making an effort.

    Like seriously! Why do I detect a hint of pride about Creoles owning slaves on plantations while having the same privileges as a White society? As an individual with Creole ancestors, I find this part of history disturbing. No thought of how the enslaved Africans would feel being enslaved by mixed Black people. To walk around free in society while having slaves for acceptance, as if enslaved Africans' lives were unimportant, is disgusting. However, it's a problem when someone discusses Creoles, African Americans, or mixed African Americans that had slaves on plantations. We always focus on the White slave owners and merchants, as if they stole 12 million to 12.8 million Africans shipped across the Atlantic over 400 years. The history of the brown paper bag tests in clubs and other parts of society. Checking people at the door of clubs to see if they passed the brown paper bag test is an embarrassing part of Creole history. What about the dark skin Creoles born in the same families with light skin relatives who were not treated fairly? No one ever talks about this part of Creole history. No matter how mixed you are, the one-drop rule in the past should have opened many people's eyes regarding the hatred of African ancestry. So let's not forget about the part of history that should be addressed because people went to their graves hurting because of it. And don't come for me. I am the same person who believes colorism goes both ways. Also, I am tired of seeing Creoles and mixed-race people brag on social media that their ancestors owned slaves. It's nothing to be proud of.

    This is too crazy... I'm a descendant of mainly Free People of Color from VA, MD, KY & OH. I'm sure their were a few slaves in there but mainly free and or Indentured Servants which IMO are slaves. We can trace family connections back to the 1600s. I also believe my family to be from East Africa. My mother haplogroup is L3e1e (East Africa) her brother's DNA reviled 1% Ethiopian and 1% Middle Eastern and another brother showed 1% Native American. My father's haplogroup is E-m4254 (East Africa) and his great grandfather wrote on his 1917 Draft Card "Ethiopian" as his race. Nonetheless, I'm somewhat confused because, I recently discovered somehow, I have roots to early Haiti before 1800? While during my ancestry research, I also noticed, I have a fairly decent connection to Grand Coteau, St. Landry Parish, Louisiana... by way of Port Tobacco, Charles County Mayland or vice versa? We do know my earliest known ancestor was a mixed Indigenous Indian and African male from Virginia. As a child he was captured during the Anglo-Indian War in 1600s and taken to Port Tobacco to be a Indentured servant for Governor William Stone. Eventually he married a white Indentured servant Welsh woman whom they had children. Those children had children with the master Stone bloodline. So because of my mixed race background it's very hard for me to figure out who's who. Today my family on average is 60% African and 40% European with Native American.
    So, I'm asking you for your help... does anyone else have this type of ancestral connection?

      PsiPhi Fan Ohh my gad !! Bullshit .... You are soooo wrong !! Thats because you only talking for people of Louisiana !! Kreyol is a much more complicated word then just Haitian or LA ppl. Kreyol is a mixture of European and African culture and each islands had series of migration so they might have a big indian and asian influence . There is different types of Kreyol , Portuguese Kreyol are like the people who came from Cabo Verde which we call Kriolo/Kriola and that island is near by Africa. French Kreyol are people from Haiti , Guadeloupe Martinique , Guyane Française and the people from Seychell , Mauricia Island , Reunion Island etc... Each Islands speak Kreyol , each have they’re way to speak but we have common culture.. The Dutch Islands which we call the ABC islands speak a certain type of Kreyol that They called Papiamento , its a dutch from of Kreyol with a lot of spanish influence . I might forget some Islands like St-Martin etc... but the point is that nobody is just one type of mix or one type of race when you are Kreyol. In some island , people are mix with indian and chinese, others are mix with the french and otherd with the portuguese and the dutch . They all look diffrent but they mostly all feel related to Africa so there is pure African blooded people that came directly from the Island BUT its true that in Haïti , because the slavery was much harder , they had to ship more slaves and most of them were directly from Africa so they weren’t not Kreyol (which is born on the plantation)

Creole in Louisiana (when describing the people) just means to be descended from the native-born colonial Louisiana population, that’s it. Nothing more, nothing less. Creole is not a race and never was in Louisiana. I myself am a white Creole and I’m not mixed race at all.
