The Creole-Italian Experience.

Il Creolo è una persona di origine europea nata nelle colonie spagnole, francesi o portoghesi d'America; un meticcio nato da un genitore indigeno, uno africano ed uno bianco; una lingua creola, ossia un linguaggio nato da un pidgin di lingue europee nelle colonie.

In the late 1800's, large numbers of immigrants from Sicily began to settle in South Louisiana. Upon their arrival, a new dimension was added to Creole culture; and, conversely, the Spanish, French, African & Indian roots of the Creoles had a profound impact upon Sicilian-American culture.
