How can someone become creole?

[anna macca]

How can someone become creole. Because I wasn't raised in the CREOLE CULTURE. So I wouldn't know where to begin . How would I find out the ways of life of the creoles instead of just guessing.
Like how (often)did they attend church? Were they any other than catholics, like protestant?
What happens when a baby is born?(celebrate)
Weddings?
How'd they celebrate when someone was going to graduate?How did they really live?
What was the characterictics?
( like did they like to around other people all the time, did they like to celebrate often?

Hello

I seem some what perplexed by Your question but for every question there is bound to be an answer..

..Creoles, Now share some of the same Cultural characteristics as most Americans White, Black or whatever...What makes a Creole is the strong brotherly bonds that runs through their veins..they bond together because they and their ancestory shared a Culture that is different than that here in America...Louisiana was a French Colony and not part of America and it's French inhabitants spoke French were influenced by the Spanish and shared many Cultural characteristics with their Caribbean neighbors..

We Creoles have a Latin Culture and even after the American takeover the Creoles continued to live this Latin Culture up until the end of the Civil War.Since then American has been successful in destroying most of the Culture these Creoles Possessed...

The Creole Culture and it's People have for the most part been assimulated into the American main stream, but , like most Cultures and Nationalities some how We manage to hold on to the little We have left and that's why so many Creoles don't want to give it up,I for one..

Hello again

The Creole lifestyle for most Creoles is no different that of most Americans, except that the traditions in a large sense are still carried on..Creole Families are tight knit,and somewhat structured.the food We eat, comes from Our Tradition, Our Parents still make the decisions and the Creole family is still close knit. most send there kids to Private or Catholic schools and I would think that for the better part most have a Catholic faith..

In Larger Creole Communities like Chicago, Los Angeles ,Louisiana and Texas...there are Community centers where they meet and share their Cultural similarities ...The Cane River Community in Northern Louisiana holds an annual heritage celebration annually in October and Creole nationwide frequently attend.There are no exclusive Creole Universities or Exclusive Fraternities that I know of although in the past they existed ..There are Creole Communities in many of Our Major Cities and Many Nationwide Creole Organizations and parishes in Louisiana.
