Louisiane Acadien

"L'union fait la force!" ("Strength Through Unity!") "Fier D'etre Acadien" ("Proud to be Acadian") We are a centuries old, vibrant culture kept alive against great odds! Our exiled French Acadian ancestors were forcibly removed from l'Acadie (Nova Scotia) during the brutal deportation by the British. The exile scattered the Acadians & is known as the Le Grand Dérangement of 1755. Many found refuge in Louisiana becoming known as "the Cajuns". Here we celebrate our deeply rich and colorful heritage and culture, the preservation of our French / Acadian / Cajun language & our refusal to turn our backs on our proud French / Acadian origins to be culturally assimilated & Anglicized!
