tell me you don’t know any actual Cajuns without telling me you don’t know any actual Cajuns.
Hint: they’re not in New Orleans.
Specifically because when the Cajuns migrated to Louisiana from Canada (modern Nova Scotia), New Orleans was Spanish territory.
The Cajuns settled far west of the Mississippi in the Bayou Teche and Atchafalaya, by Morgan City and Lafayette.
That’s the hearth of Cajun culture, predominantly French but also blended with Native American.
New Orleans is *Creole* culture…blending French, Spanish, Native American and Afro-Caribbean.
