The first thing I want to make clear here is, I have no beef with anyone involved in the making of this film.
That addressed, what do you guys think about that concept? Huh? I once heard a man who identified as “Creole” say he was neither black nor white. But do some believe they're better than black folks?

There are many definitions of the word & I suppose at one time (or even now?) some Creoles might think that they were better.
