A Haitian is a person born in Haiti or has either a Haitian mother or Haitian father but were born outside of Haiti. Haitians come from a strong, rich, warm, polite, complex Latin American culture. Ethnically the majority Haitians are predominantly of African decent. However millions of Haitians are a mixture of African,Spanish,British,French, Arab,German,Indian,Chinese, Jewish, Polish and Italian. And they come in all skin tones and colors. Most Haitians speak Haitian Creole (Kréyol) which is a beautiful language based from a mixture of French, Spanish, Portuguese, English, and a tiny bit african influences. Majority of Haitians are strict practicing Catholics. Only poor Haitians practice voodoo. Haitian cuisine is unique and extremely delicious made up of a typical caribbean/ latin american diet of plantains, rices, beans, seafood, meats, soups, vegetables, pastries, tropical fruits, coffee, teas, and rum but with intense mouth watering creole flavor and spice with a french culinary sophistication.Haitians dance and musics called Kompa which is exactly like Dominican merengue but much more elegant, romantic , and slow with a slow salsa-ish tempo. In America Haitian's and Haitian diaspora are one of the most educated, successful, professional minorities consisting of a large population of doctors, nurses, lawyers, engineers, entrepreneurs, business men, professional athlete's , actors, singers, fashion designers, and philanthropist.
