🦞 #repost The story of Louisiana cannot be told without its Cajun and Creole roots.  Louisiana culture comes from centuries of blending. France and Spain, West Africa and the Caribbean all shaped the people, the music, and the food we know today.  Cajun heritage traces to the Acadians who were expelled from Canada in the mid-1700s and made new lives across south Louisiana. Their cooking leans on what was at hand, with the “holy trinity” of onion, celery, and bell pepper as the base for dishes

It is often mentioned in the Creole community that Prince Rogers Nelson, the legendary artist, commonly known as Prince was a Creole but that truth isn’t found in his ancestral ties. He does indeed has ties to Louisiana through both parents but his folks only moved to Louisiana at the turn of the 19th century and they lived in North Louisiana where it wasn’t a heavy influence of Latin Culture hence the names of Louisiana Cities on opposite sides of the Mason Dixon. Prince was born on 7 Jun 1958
