I do hate food snobs so I'm sorry that people felt the need to reprimand you lol. but gumbo without okra is kind of ironic, since it is okra stew. I know a few people who make it that way and I always laugh and ask if they like their chicken noodle soup without chicken :) lol
this looks delicious, btw! My dad is cajun and I've had all kinds of gumbo, dark and light. they're all good!

@PharaohII if you don't want to read that book, why don't you look it up on any any search engine. Creole's where mainly French and Spanish when the term was used, so were the Cajuns. I am not saying that African Americans did not have their impact on the food, they obviously did (Black Creole's), but you have a lot of researching to do. African Americans were not the only influence on Gumbo or any other Creole or Cajun foods. Go look it up, and get over it.

You are right!. The word Gumbo means Okra in African. Not the roux. Gumbo is a stew! The star of this dish is the roux! The Africans did not create this alone. If they did, how did they come up with the roux? Without it, Okra alone can not thicken the dish. The three trinity alone can thicken up the gumbo! Why is Okra not part of the trinity? Frankly, Okra was put in for last minute garnish. Who could taste the trinity anyway? Roux, your favorite meats/seafood/poultry are your star!
