In Louisiana French, we say "un brème" for "eggplant" | En Louisiane, on dit "un brème" au lieu de "aubergine"

Tjrs un plaisir d'accueillir @TV5MONDE à Laura, cette fois-ci dans le cadre de l'émission "Destination francophonie" animée par @IvanKabacoff. L'occasion de parler de la diversité de la franco-créolophonie louisianaise & bien-sûr de l'histoire difficile de l'esclavage en Lne.
It's a beautiful day for a tour ! C'est une belle journée pour une visite !

German colonists brought the bonfires to Creole Louisiana in 1721, long before the arrival of the first Acadians to the area in 1764. Like many things, the bonfires have been rebranded as a "Cajun" holiday event, even though they have been part of LA Creole culture for 300 years.
Even on cloudy days, the textures and colours at Laura remind us that #Creole Louisiana is a world apart !
Même quand il fait nuageux les textures et couleurs à Laura nous rappellent que la Louisiane #créole est un monde à part !

We were truly saddened to learn that community elder Mr. Gufielle Keller passed away this past Tuesday, Nov 20th. In 2019, we had the privilege to record a couple of his childhood stories in French and Creole.
