Who counts as Louisiana Creole?
#ancestry #findingyourroots #ancestrydna #dnatest #louisiana #nativeamerican #creole #familyhistory #genealogy #mardigras The documentary- series "Finding Lola" is done, but is the journey over? I sat down with my friend, Creole art collector and historian, Jeremy Simien to talk to ask the real question: who gets to be Creole? Who is Creole? We discuss the family members who crossed the color line, the hurt from losing family white passing, and the incredible pieces that come together to create Creole culture. I'm asking: am I Creole?

My name is Danielle Romero, and all my life, I have romanticized Louisiana. Growing up in New York, it represented a place where I could step back the sepia-toned life of my great grandmother, Lola Perot, who died before I was born. Now, it was time to go back to Louisiana--although I had no idea what the truth would be or what questions to ask---who was Lola really? Who were we? *Amazon links are affiliate links.
