Kouri-Vini 101

Kouri-Vini 101 is an engaging and educational series, hosted by international artist, producer, and Creole culture activist Clif St. Laurent, that demystifies Kouri-Vini, the endangered Creole language of Louisiana.

Blending history, linguistics, and myth-busting with practical lessons, the series equips viewers with a foundational understanding of the language through community engagement and interviews with native and fluent speakers in real-world contexts.
