Texas Folklife is Connecting Cultural Dots
Quinn Foster
Texas and Louisiana carry a strong connection bound by familial and cultural ties.
Before and during colonization, the Atakapa-Ishak Nation were native to and lived throughout Southwest Louisiana and Southeast Texas, from Vermilion Bay to Galveston Bay. Some Ishak people today identify as Louisiana Creoles and still live in the area.
