Abstract

This project examines the complexities of identity among Creoles from South West Louisiana who migrated to California during and after World War II. This study compares and contrasts various Creole communities throughout Louisiana. This student argues that United States Migration has changed the way in which people begin to self-identify within the Creole community.
