I grew up in New Orleans,in the fiftys and sixtys,All of New Orleans is being ruined by outsiders and corporate type restaurants. All the good food is disappearing! New Orleans has a very rich history of many cultures having an influence on the food and traditions,It is being watered down and destroyed, so sad !
Oh wow, that is so sad and horrible. It seems as if there is a collective effort to destroy and erase Black peoples history and contributions to culture and society. It's horrifying and terrible, simply awful.
Creole Cajun food is soooooooooo so so special and spectacular.
It’s still here!! I live in the 13th ward and been here since late 90’s. You can still walk or streetcar to fantastic gumbo- chicken- and a streetcar will get you meatloaf
Oh my 😮Terrible

RIP Ms. Leah Chase
I was so fortunate to go to her restaurant Dooky Chase for an after-prom dinner. I also bought her cookbook.
This was so interesting and informative. I really enjoyed watching this video, not just because I was born in the Big Easy, but to hear about the history of good cooking. I just love the food. Growing up, my sister's and I never had to go out to eat good food we got that everyday at home. There's nothing better than having a mother who can "Through Down" in the kitchen. Show ya right!!!😃🤣😂😅
Amen!
Well said😇💜💜my great grand father was born in New Orleans and I'm so thankful that he met and married my great grandmother( who almost lived to be a century)born in Texas and we keep our family traditions going. She was Native, now I see how they met and had all them kids💞💗💓💓🤎🖤. They was eating and dancing. Amen
I know what you’re saying 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Beautiful documentary! My father was born and raised in, The 7th Ward, Corpus Christi parish, and my mother was born and raised in the 6th Ward, St Peter Claver parish. New Orleans people are great cooks, especially those Creoles! My mother recently published a Creole Cookbook, that was released in February of this year. A Way To A Man’s Heart, by Sandra Sylvest-Galle’-Goudeaux.👍🏾❤️
I was born and raised in New Orleans, I love the people and our great culture!! ❤️🙏🏾❤️
Im from Seychelles Island and our native language is creole...but more like haitian creole...but mostly our food looks exactly like y'alls cooking!! i would love to check out your grandma's cookbook!!
❤❤❤

Where can I purchase the cookbook
Born and raised in Houma, La but my grandparents were from the city. There was no place better than being in New Orleans as a kid. So much I moved there and attended Xavier. City hasn’t been the same since Katrina.
New Iberia here - Southern and Tulane University Law School- Katrina broke my heart- loss a total of five close relatives and friends- have not returned since.
Great cooking from great People of our African heritage.
I was born in South Louisiana....1960. We had help in our home. My parents both worked. Nora raised us...bathed us...fed us. Her cooking instilled in me a love for food and its history. I was always welcome in her kitchen, clinging to her apron strings, always curious. I sat in the kitchen and ate with her...the dining room was reserved for adults. I didn't mind. I am forever grateful...every time that I cook!!!
So Nora wasnt an adult?
@@robinanders3954 no identity except for ‘ Nora ‘. Did Nora have a family ? Who took of her family while she worked at your house ?
@@robinanders3954 No MRS/MS or nothing.. u KNOW she was forced to work in their house as it was against the law for Black women to be stay at home moms to their OWN children / refused to work in the home of a white family at the behest of a white woman. Against the damn LAW. I’d even be willing to bet his mother did NOT work.. he only added THAT so it wouldn’t appear to the Black commenters that his family partook in ‘maintaining the help’. All the likes his comment got is UNDOUBTEDLY from other white ppl.
I appreciate sir... your fond memories of your hired help...I'm sure you all loved her dearly
@@hoodooandheadwraps6202 exactly. I hoped my comment made him take a closer look at how much they claimed to love her. I saw it happen. I took care of a man who had terminal cancer. They had a maid named Connie. Connie got old and it was really starting to show. Instead of doing something like, giving her a severance package w their millions of $$, they seized on an opportunity when ONE TIME ONLY she wasnt feeling good and got snappy with the wife. Just sent her on her way and didnt think anything else about it. But they "loved her so much". I went and checked on her as I'd begun giving her a ride. Luckily her daughter was able to move her mom in with her. The lady was 80 years old for crying out loud and had worked for that family for 30 years. They all sung her praises till she just got too old to keep up. And then threw her away like anything else theyd used up and threw out. I get sick of the "well that's just how it was back then" bs. I've had many arguments w my own family about how if you know something is wrong, you dont just go along to get along w society. That's why everything is so upside down right now. People didnt stand up for the right things and if they did, the government infiltrated those groups and destroyed true movements to bring about real change (ie anti war movement turned into drugged out hippies). Our society has been carefully constructed and engineered thru massive psychological operations to gain acceptance and legalization for every sin imaginable. Theyve worked hard keeping us at each others throats instead of going after them. It wasnt hard to do cause the white folks enjoyed their priviledge. Even the ones who think they never got any. I wasnt born w much and still dont have much but I knew when having to deal with the police, I didnt have to be afraid I'd wind up dead. I knew I could go to any part of town w out someone possibly asking me what I was doing there. Didnt get followed around while shopping. Yeah theres classism and I've had to deal with that but so what. Coulda married a man w $$ and had all that if that's what I wanted. But classism, you can just look the part and not have to deal with that. Big huge difference being judged or categorized just cause your black. But guess what I learned just from reading the Bible for myself by the time I was 12 in 1987, yall are the true Israelites and its prophecy time! Oh yes the tables are about to flip all the way over. I'm watching them inch their way down now. This here mystery Babylon America has a whole lot of judgement coming her way. And along with that comes true Israel's restitution. So get your traveling shoes on, I got mine on all the time. This place is gonna blow and when the way is made out of here, I ain't hesitating one minute!
It's nice that the paid tribute to people who actually COOKED the food.
Too bad they didn't pay tribute to those who created the recipies though.....
@ds22009 I'm pretty sure the ones who cooked the food are the ones who created most of the dishes.
nope.
ds22009 Well, who created the recipes then?
French, italian, and spanish settlers utilizing the local resources.
As a native of New Orleans and tour guide, this video is amazing and makes me appreciate my city and culture ❤️⚜️
I really truly appreciate this documentary about the ancestors contribution to this country's food culture particularly Creole. I hope I can find a documentary about Gullah/Geechee that the ancestors of that culture contributed to the building of this country.
*Grateful*
@The Realist And the Geechee's, live in Georgia, especially Savannah.
I know, I would learn about there contributions as well. It's amazing how the geechee/Gullah have been put of the Gullah Island where they have been for many years. Rich people have went there and took everything from them
I have seen a video on youtube about the Gullah people!
@@barbram8001 and on the island in mobile South Carolina
Thumbs up 👍 for the Gullah GeeChee Ancestors from John's Island and Wadalaw Island South Carolina, near Charleston South Carolina.
Everytime Foundational Black People history is mentioned and highlighted as major contributors of the culture of America. Everyone else try to crowbar and include themselves with what we built and created only with our presence and influence here in America. If it wasn't for Chattel Slavery in America. It wouldn't be no America without Black enslaved people building the culture and economic empire in America 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Say it louder for the people in the back.
Very true ❤❤
I’m 65 and grew up when kids in the neighborhood had many people looking out for us. We could not get away with anything. How do we turn back time. It was so simple back then.
Black people are so magical!
and resilient, when you think of all the things they have had to deal with and are still to this very day dealing with.
Beautifly said❤
THANK YOU !!!!!!!😊😊😊
8:13 oh by circumstance? Some white ppl have a hard time saying by force of slavery .
Riiiiight. By "circumstance." Too many white folks are still trying to have polite conversation about a savage reality.
Enslaved, not slaves😡
The opening music is amazing. Absolutely. Loved the presentation as well, loved the music throughout. ❤
My family is Louisiana creoles, my grandmother made the best seafood gumbo ever! Miss my Nani.
I call my great grandma Nana.. we are too
My Daddy's folks are French/Italian/African Creole... from New Orleans, Slidell, Napoleonville and Lake Ponchartrain areas...LOVE me some dirty rice and seafood gumbo... Yeah!
My grandfathers family are Louisiana/Alabama Creole with Trinidad roots. I miss his cooking.
That's the name we called our great-grandmother! Nani
My mom is From Shreveport Louisiana and we have Creole blood in us
Both of my parents were born in Louisiana and they cooked Louisiana dishes. Gumbo fried corn snd they used shrimp snd crab for most dishes..blk eyed peas okra. I'm 69 a Oakland native and I cook like Southern good with a touch of Oak town.
I love GOOD FOOD 🎉🎉🎉🎉
My mother-in-law Mary Ballard was a creole from Churchpoint, La. She was a great cook. When i visited her she would make my favorite dishes. Red beans and rice, dirty rice and fried chicken. She would load me up with plenty to take home.
WEEKS ISLAND- IBERIA PARISH- HERE
@8:10 I love how the woman couldn't even bring herself to say by "force" instead insisted on being enslaved as a "circumstance" unbelievable.....
She was a Karen looking to sound genteel...
You noticed that too.
I had a black girl friend- KAFINY Who is STILL looking to sound and act GENTEEL- I think she was trying to change her name to MS. MONET- it Was taken by a KAREN-JUST Sayin-
Greetings, greetings, what an emotional feeling. We are strong simply by observing others.
I cringe when I see ‘our cultural culinary heritage’ exploited at restaurants all over the world without even one thought of the cultural significance. I especially cringe when it exploited by the descendants of the oppressors. America has so so much reckoning to do.
I cringe when I see people sharing our recipes with others too! Stop!
It’s such a pleasure to cook for my children and grandchildren and friends and family who are also the only people who get my recipes. However, if they don’t have the ingredients plus the knowledge, sprinkles of soul mixed with lots of love, it will taste like the ones who stole the recipes. Horrible.😢
💯💯💯
Watching this reminds me of all the stories my grandmother told me about old New Orleans creole cooking. Rest her soul
Id give anything to go back and have one more day in the kitchen with my Grandma.
I just learned about my Creole heritage and was so exciting to find out why I liked the things I did cleared up some of my ideology. Where this idea comes
from. Why I like this or that kind of food. I was.a adopted child with no idea where I came from originally. I took a DNA test from Ancestry test and a lot of my history came forward.
Born and raised in cajun Louisiana. We ate the same food and lived the same livestyle as New Orleans creoles. Sunday dinner after mass was very special. I miss it
Deborah Palmgren I’m a white Creole from greater New Orleans and we all ate the same things because we all shared foods.
@@IslenoGutierrez didn't even know white creole existed
@@ShirellStevenson Yep, we white Creoles exist, plenty of us. There are French Creoles, Spanish Creoles, Acadian Creoles (Cajuns) and German Creoles. French last names like Rabalais, Bordelon and Ducote, Spanish last names like Gonzales, Fernandez and Romero, Acadian last names like Guidry, Blanchard and Leblanc and German last names like Trosclair, Toups and Haydel. Many white Creoles today are a mix of any of those types. The French Quarter of New Orleans is a former white Creole neighborhood that was full of French Creoles with a minority of Spanish Creoles before it became a tourist attraction and populated by whoever from wherever.
Oh, I forgot to add that Cajuns are white Louisiana Creoles and used to be called Creoles before the term Cajun came along. In fact, Cajuns used to be called Acadian Creoles to separate them from other white Creoles like French Creoles, Spanish Creoles and German Creoles. That’s why we all eat the same food is because we are all Louisiana Creoles eating Louisiana creole food. This idea of “Cajun food” is made up, it’s not real.
@@ShirellStevenson me either, that's a new one for me!
I wish I saw more of these historical food programs on cooking networks. I love the history of food and not just some cheesy host/chef cooking some terrible food.
when i go to New Orleans, I would like to eat at and support local Creole restaurants. Gentrification can be helpful but ruins often neighbourhoods
Mr. B's Bistro is one place you can go. My son inlaw is the evening manager. This restaurant is part of the "Brennan Family" of restaurants. Good food!
peru is very very rich for food like this. its a very creole environment. there is so much amazing creole food in Lima, Peru.
I am a Creole from the San Francisco CA, my great grandmother and my grandma and my father all are from Louisiana, my great granny was from Opelousas my grandma is from VillePlatte LA, my mother is a Irish and African American from Mississippi, my parents met after the second great migration out west to California, they met in San Francisco in 1955, my brother was born in 1957, I was born in 1959, we have kept in touch with family In Louisiana and Texas, some family migrated to Dallas, Austin, Houston, Baytown, and Beaumont, some are in the Bay Area, but we still stay in touch with each other! ❤
A very informative documentary for this Australian who liIves in a totally different world. It was wonderful to learn about Creole Cooking, and listen to the interesting characters of New Orleans. Thank you so much,.
This is Excellent!! Please keep it coming💯👌🏾🙏🏽
Absolutely Amazing as a Chief I value that my Mother was Creo and my Father was a Geechie. The mix of food is amazing trying to keep it alive
Yes
Please do 🎉🎉🎉
My mom from Shreveport so I love our Creole food she moved to Indiana when she was 12

Than their is the Chef's Table where you are invited to sit in the resteraunt kitchen and eat what the chef is
cooking. So good.
Awesome representation of Creole culture (as it relates to food and cooking) by some of the city's "living legends"!
We had the same street vendors inPanama. In the morning, the fresh milk in bottles, fresh breadofdifferent kinds, sold from a huge straw basket covered with a huge white napkin, fresh fruit in a hand trolley, etc.
My grandparents grew up in New Orleans. My grandmother could cook people under the table! Great documentary.
Beautiful documentary!! 🙌🏻👏🏻
So wonderful to hear Aria Mason's voice again on this. Beautifully done. Thank you for including us in this!
Remarkable Historical and Beautiful documentary . Deepest condolences too all The Families in History unspoken ,silenced and suffered in those times ! May Today's children be Proud of there Berth right and to learn berth right language ! What a Privlage too have that knowledge of good cooking!
I enjoyed this 🥰 very educational program
Creole in this case represents the mulattos. But I do know that many Creole of colr were pure Black.
I know in New Orleans history rich mulattoes wanted to be separated from the Black masses and create their on caste, but the white elites would not allow it. These people marry each other to maintain their look.
This ain’t a lie. I’m from one of the big creole families - my dad is one of those gens de couleur libres, or passé blanc, those creoles from Cane River, who tend to marry each other. Now dad thinks for himself. He married my mom, velvety Black and gorgeous, Black French Creole as they say. Gets kicked out of the family. Years later, after their eldest was born, they slowly got accepted back, once they saw the kids were so light and some with those bright green eyes (yup, insert eye roll here). But it’s kind of too late - I don’t know many folks from dad’s side because they were so unwelcoming to my mom. Funny thing - dad’s side stopped speaking French a couple generations ago, but mom’s side continued straight to her generation with French as their first language, even though dad’s got the French last name and mom didn’t. As I’m writing this, they are still alive and happily married, looking like an interracial couple. But as soon as dad speaks, you can see he’s proudly Black. I love the rich history both types of Creole affords, and am so proud to be a product of them!
My daddy was Creole and mama Cajun. I never knew what kids meant by what are you? because neither parent, grandparents or other relatives identified as anything but La. Cajun or Creole. Even today l don’t get into those feel good, let’s get acquainted discussions because l don’t identify culturally with white or black America. As to the darkskin, yes. I was years old when l found out a friend’s relatives birth names were Pearl and Alma, not Black Pearl and Dusty Alma! But when you grow up around them you learn it’s not hate and they mean the person no harm. I remember when my daddy told one of my brothers to choose his wife wisely. He said if you get stuck on stupid, remember what your mama and grandmama look like. 😂😂😂
@@lovelyreen9936 what a honest and uplifting piece of history, thank you for sharing your family history. I visited nola on three occasions last year the last time to see the damage from hurricane Ida in Edgard
Yes Louisiana is a very interesting state. The climate and the land are beautiful. Other than the occasional hurricane would be a great retirement spot.
I thought creole meant you were mixed with different things? How is someone creole and they’re full black? Asking for a educational reasons
@@XxMercuriiXx …the only reason they’re black today is because you have blacks and others trying to erase our culture. We’re not African American and AA aren’t Creole. Integration was wrong for everybody!!!!
I wish to God we could go back in time to where the black people were the business owners and cooks and vendors. Back in the day the city was thriving. Low crime. Black people have always been able to thrive inspite of the racism and oppression. My mom and her siblings taken from her family after her mom abandoned the family and the good society women of Oklahoma thought my Cherokee father was not smart enough to raise his own children. They placed my mom and her sister with a black creole woman. Mary became my big mama and was a much loved part of my family until the day she died. She spoke fluent French and was brilliant. Jim Crow laws did not destroy the black people. They showed amazing strength of character. People have no idea of what the indignities the people suffered.
What Mr. Vaucresson is talking about, gentrification of the 7th Ward today, well that also happened back in the 60’s and 70’s as many white Creoles that lived downtown in the 6th ward, 7th Ward, 8th Ward, 9th Ward, Gentilly and Mid-city/Bayou St. John, started moving to the suburbs (Metairie, Kenner, St. Bernard, Westbank, Slidell). So now it’s happening to the blacks and mixed race Creoles in this time period. Before we know it, there will be another population change in New Orleans, again. It will get to the point where the only old time Louisiana culture will be in the suburbs of New Orleans and in Acadiana, which has not been a victim of gentrification like New Orleans repeatedly has.
I keep reading your comments regarding white creoles. There is no such thing, sir. Those white creoles with the French surnames are French Creoles! I know this because my papa is one and so is most of his light eyed family! Yes, they have the European look but many have the black hair and black eyes of their Native American or African ancestry. Only the Cajun can be said to be truly white. I understand by your surname your either Spanish or Italian, but you cannot speak for all lightskin Creole people. There is no such thing as mixed race Creole either. That’s your sly way to connect the darker ones to the African Americans. Those red skin and tan skin Creoles are the ones with the heavy Native American lineage, like my dad.
Btw, Many Creoles who are intermarried with Blacks say so. Like entertainer Beyoncé is half Black and half Creole.
@@MayMay-el4wg You don't know what you are talking about...read a real history book...NOT People magazine
@@MayMay-el4wg No, you’re 100% wrong. I’m a white Creole of French and Spanish origin and my ancestry goes back to colonial Louisiana and I have no black or Native American ancestry. I know for a fact because I’ve done a DNA test. You obviously don’t know what or who Creoles are from what you’ve said thus far. Creole is not a particular race or ancestry. Creole in Louisiana means to be born in Louisiana of old world ancestry (any ancestry that is not Native American) and usually a colonial Louisiana descendant of any race. There are white Creoles, black Creoles, mixed race Creoles. There are even Filipino Creoles that are descendants of 18th century ship passengers that were aboard Spanish galleon ships that arrived to Louisiana. All people of the Louisiana colony were Creoles regardless of race. This is documented in Louisiana’s historical archives. You’re attributing this French/black mixed race idea that you’re familiar with and belong to, to all Creoles and then calling them French Creoles which is wrong also. French Creoles in Louisiana are white people of Louisiana French descent. There are also Spanish Creoles (whites of Louisiana colonial Spanish descent), Acadian Creoles (Cajuns) and German Creoles (whites of Louisiana colonial German descent). Euro/Afro mixed race type Creoles are called Creoles of Color. Why of color? Because there are Creoles not of color, which are the white Creoles. All of this is backed by historically documented evidence and academic literature. There are white people in Louisiana of French descent, those of Spanish descent and those of German descent of Louisiana colonial origin and these people are white Louisiana Creoles (French Creoles, Spanish Creoles and German Creoles and many white Creoles are any mix of these). Cajuns are Acadian Creoles, a type of white Louisiana Creole. Before the term Cajun came into existence, Cajuns were called Creoles, specifically Acadian Creole. There is historical documentation with that too. A famous piece of historical evidence for that claim is the Breaux Manuscript of the Attakapas district 1840-1901.
And my surname is Spanish because I descend from colonial Spaniards that have been in Louisiana since the 18th century. They are Spanish Creoles. But I also have ancestry from 18th century Louisiana French people who are called French Creoles. There are plenty of French surnames in my family if you must know, very popular ones too might I add that even a few of them are street names in New Orleans. I don’t speak for Creoles of Color or black Creoles. I speak for white Creoles, but specifically myself and my family. And yes, there are mixed race Creoles too. There are two types. One of European and West African mixture (with some having Native American admixture and some not having it) and one of European and Native American mixture (this one is historically known as métis Créole). And yes, there are black Creoles too, they are Afro-Creoles. They are the Louisiana born descendants of the colonial Louisiana black population. Another thing is, to be a Louisiana Creole, one must be born in Louisiana. Creole is also a synonym for a locally born Louisiana person. This is all found in the historical record. 300 years of Louisiana historically documented evidence will validate everything I’m saying here. Not only that, my parents identify as Creole, my grandparents identify as Creole, my great grandparents identified as Creole and all my family before them. And Beyoncé’s mother is a Creole of Color because she’s a Euro/black mixed race type Louisiana Creole and born in Louisiana but Beyoncé is not a Creole because she was not born in Louisiana. You can’t be “half Creole”. It’s not an ancestry that you can be half of. Either you’re Creole or not. Being born in Louisiana is a prerequisite to being a Louisiana Creole. This is also in the Louisiana historical documentation. Don’t go down this rabbit hole with me, I’d rather not embarrass you in front of all these people here with a wall of evidence.

There were white people in kitchens,the difference is the great cooks were black cooks-African,Caribbean cooks. A lot of Spanish,French influences too. I love creole food,hard to find outside of the deep gulf coast.
I miss home so much. 😂 I know it’s different now though. I miss the way it was when I was growing up in the 70’s, going to Mardi Gras parades, going to visit cousins in Madisonville and listening to the old aunties speak in creole so us kids couldn’t know what they were saying. I still can’t make gumbo the way my mama did, but my sister can. I used to make praline candy for my kids when they were little and shrimp po-boys. They still ask for it when they come home for Christmas. This documentary brought back so many wonderful memories. But sadly our creole culture is becoming nothing but a fond memory. Leah Chase was my cousin and I’ll miss her truly.

Thank for sharing this history it was inspiring and insightful please don’t allow our history be destroy.😢🙏🏿
I lived uptown, in the area they called "pension town." My great-grandparents were farmers and owned a lot of land that was subsequently taken from them by the government hiking the property tax so high they couldn't keep all of their land. They migrated to the city, where they opened a beer parlor, today it's called a bar on Perdido Street, not far from where the Falstaff Brewery opened. I miss New Orleans, but I don't miss the racism, I still remember colored bathrooms, water fountains, etc...and many restaurants where Blacks/Creole worked but couldn't eat there.
@@marialipscomb6988 I literally and fondly remember that bar because that's where pa-pa would go after his work shift at coca cola yes it was racism but inspite of that we still had fun growing up in the late 1970s early 1980s 😄

Food that can take all day cooking after hr of preparation

Its crazy the rhythm is all Haiti. Beautiful
depité senatè What do you mean it’s all Haiti? St. Domingue (colonial Haiti) is only one component of Louisiana creole cooking. There are also elements from French. Spanish, Americans from the southern US, Germans, Italians, Martinicans (Martinique), Cubans, Native Americans and Acadians (maritime French Canadians).
Stanley Dougé Creole has never had such a meaning you speak of in Louisiana. In Louisiana, traditionally creole was the name given to people born of the land, regardless of race. However, since its usage was mainly during colonial times of French and Spanish colonization, creole culture tends to have a French-Spanish base with added influences. In Louisiana, Creole is neutral of race or ethnicity. One must only be born on the land and into the culture. You can shake your head all you want, but I can provide you with historic Louisiana documentation to back my argument.
@@IslenoGutierrez The video is basically telling you the truth and you still don't understand. During colonial times The French and Spanish colonies didn't separate people by just race , you are correct.To be honest you just picked out certain parts of the truth. The French and the Spanish didn't want to recognize the blacks as being either of French nor Spanish decent. Hatians has a lot to do the taste of the food as well as Africans . You have to also know the history of the spices. go back and do some more reading.
@@ms.carter4297 No, blacks were not recognized as French or Spanish... but the culture of New Orleans and south Louisiana is one of a mixture of influences. There is no haitian influence in Louisiana... however, there is some St. Domingue influence (the multicultural French colony that existed before it became the all black republic of Haiti). But understand, the spices in the cooking of south Louisiana comes from many of the influences of peoples that settled it. The French and Spanish brought lots of spices... and some spices came from the Caribbean and some came from Louisiana itself... Louisiana’s culture and food is a mixture of many different influences, but there has always existed a French and Spanish base...
@Tito Torres it was neutral until Jim crow and CODIFIL
A chicken on steroids! I’ve been saying that for years! My moms family has Creole roots!

Someone mentioned Philippino arrived in 1800's on Spanish Galion ships in Louisiana. In 1983, I applied for a Visa to travel to the Philippines with my husband and kids, on his orders with USAF. My Visa came back with my Mother's name listed as Carolyn Calon, which I believe is a Philippino surname. However, that was incorrect, my birth mother per my birth cert and family history.
What french song is used thru out this short?
This is what is happening to Texas too !
What would anyone believe is the best Creole Louisiana style cook book ?
I enjoyed the video! ☺☺☺☺
I lived next door to Mrs. Morials friends . The Bartholomew's in the Seventh ward
Gumbo - okra = African !!!!!!
Okra in French is Gombo. Nice try.
Love New Orleans Culture. Reminds me of Haiti, We people of colors should be Called Creole again, and not just light skin people.
Haiti is our major influenced especially of the voodoo/vodou that has arrived in Louisiana. Haiti gave Louisiana creoles a named of many African countries.
@Mani M prove it! Napoleon made sure the new Orleanes slave knew nothing about the revolt in Haiti. Creole came from Africa and french! Did you know this? Are you making up your own thing here? Even your spelling of the words are distorted. What are you ashamed of? Seems you're running away from real history here....I'm proud of my Haitian heritage and culture, not the witchcraft of course, because that's abomination it is Idol worship.
@Mani M You are diminishing and discrediting truth of history for some made up tradition you call kreyal. Be proud of your blackness- Africa is our roots not Europe. Nor should we cling to other peoples heritage, i.e. Indians. They all hate yashruels people..Be content how God made you. GOD IS THE GREATEST!
@Mani M Ebonics is what you're talking about, not creole!
@@childofGodsKingdom Thank you for saying this. I just recently had to give my son n law pointers on the Creole history. All the young people know is that they are Creole because of good hair and light skin,but don't know anything about their history
I love NOLA
There is a new type of food called cloning.
I enjoyed this video. When will life even out for everyone?God gave land to every race of humans. But look what evilness did and still doing !!!
It goes back to the Doctrine of Discovery. And the Papal Bulls. And Marco Polo before that. Where Columbus got his ideas from.
I acknowledge the black hand in the pot, but is there also videos of this making, showing the French, Spanish and other influences like Native American, German, Acadian and Italian on Louisiana creole cooking? I mean after all, everybody chipped in to produce creole cooking and culture. It has so many influences.
I agree
Brian Thomas I just wonder if this was a one sided attempt to promote blackness or an innocent video part of a collection showing all the influences of Louisiana creole cooking.
Boy the racist just cant let History be what tf it is cant you you selfish bastards?
@@IslenoGutierrez Every time Black people try to showcase their history, because God forbid, we try to be included in a well documented WHITE society, here yall come...."what about the white people who did this...". We all know about white contributions....its is well documented. Yall have a whole CAJUN movement. Let Creoles of Color have their time.
It was stated in the first 5 minutes what all the influences are that make up Creole; they made the distinction that the African influence came first and is underrepresented. I agree with that.
But the owner got the credit I want the whole nation to know what my people did
WOW........Can anyone recommend a traditional Creole cookbook that I can purchase?
Talk About Good, published by the Junior League of Lafayette is good one, has many Creole and Cajun recipes, (318)988-2739, Le Bon Ton Roule ¡😎¡

Yesss lovely
Les gens couleur de libres. Yes we are extremely extraordinary.
This is an EXCELLENT documentary of my people!!!!! Thank You to all of the contributors.❤
I'm Latina and have grown up in Australia. What the man said about it didn't matter who he was playing with, if a kid got called home for lunch or dinner, then all the kids came over for lunch or dinner! We were one of a very few Latinos in my home town when we came to live here when I was 8. My family custom was to have a cooked lunch on Sundays as well as dinner. Many weekends my brother and I would be playing in the street with the kids down the road but come lunch time, all the same kids would beat our house, often having pasta for lunch. The kids loved it, totally new experience for them. My parents taught me a lot about hospitality when I was a kid. One of my dreams is to one day go to New Orleans and try authentic creole food! Gumbo, shrimp, grits and anything else you got!
I love this!
Black people wont give
Up their love snd devotion for false gods and witchcraft! Yoruba and Santeria! Also voodoo! That is why we are being eliminated!
We love and embrace all types food except what goes against the word of God! Hallelujah Amen 🙏 ❤ Everything is not good for the body! Romans 12
Yall remember lost bread?
My grandma used to always say that when I was little
Hi there, I'm a retired over the road truck driver, have spent lots of time in Louisiana, the thing I miss the most is Creole seasoned pickled quail eggs, wish I could e snacking on them now
I don’t want meat like that I would throw it up
I don’t want Eggs like that
The first creole cooking school in the US was on the site of the original Mobile settlement, about twenty miles north of the city’s current location. Fact.
Truth 🍸
Are you related to Mayor Morial of New Orleans? Beautiful documentary of home. Thank you.
