What is a black creole exactly?

[anna macca]

Have any one know anything about black creoles? History?
And has any one heard of IRISH CREOLES?

I'll do my best

A Black Creole in most cases is a Creole that is not mixed, or on a broader term ,One with only African Ancestory..Since the Word Creole denotes Culture and not Race he would be an unmixed Black person who shares the Creole Culture, speaks the Creole Language, the same as the Mixed Race or Entirely White Creoles..The Black Creoles are the direct decendents ,in most cases, of the Africans brought to the New World by the European Colonizers .

Of Course there are mixed Creoles who choose to identify with the White Race and there are some who choose to identify with the Black Race...Most Generally mixed Creoles choose to identify themselves as a separate Race of people being neither White nor Black.

Generally some can suggest that if You are not White then You would be Black but that would mean that mixed Race Creoles would be in denial of their White Heritage...Believe it or not the long time notion, that there are only three Races ,Anthropologically does not exist.If this would be true then there would be no in betweens

A blk. Creole could be someone like Beyonce(but she syas that she is Creole). Black on one side and Creole on the other. They could also be people who are connected to the Creole community through ancestry but have a majority of family members that are from the African American community.
Or-it could be that your talking about a very very dark Creole-like a Haitian.

I dont think all Black Creoles are unmixed. They can be and are predominately of African ancestry. Like in my family we look African American and identify that way, because we have African American ancestry as well. We also descend from Acadians. However, I'm five generations from my Acadian ancestor.
