There is no single definition for the word Creole, that is in many ways by design. After all, Creole - or Criollo - is Spanish for people who are native to Here. And every "here" is unique.
Ethnic Qarsherskiyan people are a type of Sweetgum Kriyul people. Sweetgum Kriyul people are a Creole ethnicity created by the intermarrying of people of different races who were oppressed in the USA throughout a 500 year history dating back to colonial Jamestown. The Irish and other Celtic people, Germanic people, Native Americans, and West Africans make up much of the ancestry of Ethnic Qarsherskiyans and other Sweetgum Kriyul people. Ethnic Qarsherskiyan people are distinct in their identity because of a shared culture most ethnic Qarsherskiyan people have that is influenced by Islam, Zoroastrianism, Orthodox Christianity, the faith created in Morocco by Salih Ibn Tarif, Berber and North African culture, Korean culture, and Native American mythology and culture and religions.
Today many Ethnic Qarsherskiyan people as well as other types of Sweetgum Kriyul people such as Melungeons and the Lumbee tribe can be found hunting, fishing, and foraging in the forests of Eastern North America in order to provide food for their families, enjoy hobbies, and keep old traditions alive.
