Teachers told them to speak only English, and over time, families stopped passing the language down out of fear and shame. What was once spoken with pride in homes, churches, and communities slowly began to fade #Louisiana #cajun #French | The Bearded Backpacker | Facebook

It came from French settlers known as Acadians, who were forced out of Canada in the 1700s and found refuge in Louisiana. Over generations, their French mixed with African, Spanish, and Native influences, creating the unique Cajun and Creole French spoken here. #louisiana #french #louisianaculture #creoles #cajun | The Bearded Backpacker | Facebook
