Although a number of important studies of American slavery have explored the formation of slave cultures in the English colonies no book until now has undertaken a comprehensive assessment of the development of the distinctive AfroCreole culture of colonial Louisiana This culture based upon a separate language community with its own folkloric musical religious and historical traditions was created by slaves brought directly from Africa to Louisiana before 1731 It still survives as the acknowledged cultural heritage of tens of thousands of people of all races in the southern part of the state In this pathbreaking work Gwendolyn Midlo Hall studies Louisianas creole slave community during the eighteenth century focusing on the slaves African origins the evolution of their own language and culture and the role they played in the formation of the broader society economy and culture of the region Hall bases her study on research in a wide range of archival sources in Louisiana France and Spain and employs several disciplineshistory anthropology linguistics and folklorein her analysis Among the topics she considers are the French slave trade from Africa to Louisiana the ethnic origins of the slaves and relations between African slaves and native Indians She gives special consideration to race mixture between Africans Indians and whites to the role of slaves in the Natchez Uprising of 1729 to slave unrest and conspiracies including the Pointe Coupee conspiracies of 1791 and 1795 and to the development of communities of runaway slaves in the cypress swamps around New Orleans

During the colonial period in Guyana the countrys coastal lands were worked by enslaved Africans and indentured Indians In Creole Indigeneity Shona N Jackson investigates how their descendants collectively called Creoles have remade themselves as Guyanas new natives displacing indigenous peoples in the Caribbean through an extension of colonial attitudes and policiesLooking particularly at the nations politically fraught decades from the 1950s to the present Jackson explores aboriginal and Creole identities in Guyanese society Through government documents interviews and political speeches she reveals how Creoles though unable to usurp the place of aboriginals as First Peoples in the New World nonetheless managed to introduce a new more socially viable definition of belonging through labor The very reason for bringing enslaved and indentured workers into Caribbean labor became the organizing principle for Creoles new identitiesCreoles linked true belonging and so political and material right to having performed modern labor on the land labor thus became the basis for their subaltern settler modes of indigeneitya contradiction for belonging under postcoloniality that Jackson terms Creole indigeneity In doing so her work establishes a new and productive way of understanding the relationship between national power and identity in colonial postcolonial and anticolonial contexts
