In fact, some groups became so well-treated that they rose to very high positions in the empire and practically ran the empire but as Persians, not seeking to turn the empire into their own or destroy it from within.

We are told that we're less than because we're not the dominant ruling class and so we've internalized that message. I used to be so ashamed of being Muslim as a kid. OMG, I never claimed it. Being Indian, most people assumed I was Hindu and if they asked about religion, I told them that I don't discuss religion or politics with people. Now, as an adult, I'm unapologetically and unabashedly Muslim. That's a part of me and a part that has given me my moral compass and has made me into a kind, compassionate human being so why would I hide it or be ashamed of a significant part of me.

So you had two celebrations a year--one for your birthday and another for your "onomastico", or the Saint day of the saint you were named for. St. Joseph's day even comes with it's own pastry and pasta dish! I get it--kinda feel like I'm owed a few back celebrations too! ;) And speaking of which, btw, Happy Birthday!

They get surprised each time we meet as I use a new Farsi word and jokingly ask me if I am actually not Persian, and I jokingly tell them I am actually from Ishfahan (a city in Iran which has beautiful Persian architecture and that I'd love to visit). They get a good laugh out of that! They loved sharing their food with me (generously!) and of course, Persian food is one of the things we love to discuss at each meeting (and I love to learn about).

Halfie here too. I grew up in Dearborn, Michigan... which has a SUPER HIGH number of Persians, Chaldeans, Assyrians, Copts and Arab Egyptians, etc., Like every Middle Eastern person I grew up with is just like you. Nearly indistinguishable from "Regular White". My hardest thing in life, as a half-Ukrainian with a mom so white she's basically see-through, is even being recognized as North African (Egyptian), at all.

@@kvoncomedyhey K.von I am so excited to meet you here in Calgary😊 By the way, as my BA is Translation & I have no doubt your book will be loved by most Iranians, I wonder if it is possible to translate it info Farsi? It would be a great chance for everybody to learn of your adventures and look at their own culture from a different point of view. What do you think?
