History Places the Creole Culture back as far as the Moorish invasion of Europe

In my search to keep Creoles informed about their History and Through a bit of research We have been able to trace the beginning of Our Creole Culture back to the 15th Century in the Spanish and Portuguese West African Colonies and Slave trading post and to the shores of Portugal and Seville, Spain well before slavery was established in the New World.

It Began with the Moorish conquest continued for over 700 years and after the defeat of the Moors by the European again arose in West Africa and continued to Flourish in the Spanish and Portuguese communities of Europe...Not only did Creole culture flourish but Many Mixed Race Creoles of Color would accompany the Spanish , French and Portuguese as Conquistadors , Conquerors and Discoverors..

.Our History in this period has been well documented .This firmly establishes Creoles and Mulattos as a Bonified Nation with a Culture that is seperate from the African American..Our Mulatto Heritage is justifiably unique and apart from Our African American counterparts..Let Us not forget that Our Culture through time has mixed with th African Americans and Mulattos to form a more diverse culture but non the less Our Creole Culture Remains strong and Rich in heritage and History
