Gaining Ground

Discovering the New Iranian American

  • As young Iranian Americans, we will be the ones responsible for propagating Iranian culture in the United States. Who are we in this new generation, what will we preserve, and what might we leave behind?

    "Gaining Ground" is an attempt to answer these questions. A space in which we - and YOU - will join to share our discoveries of what it means to be Iranian in the United States today, what it means to be Iranian in general, and how we can promote our newfound identities in our adopted homes. Please read "About 'Gaining Ground'" for more information!

“We *had* an empire” – Maz Jobrani

Posted by Aggie on January 30, 2010

Maz jobrani cannot stop being funny!

Though I do wonder sometimes why he takes on some of the acting roles he does. I’ve seen him portray violent or cartoonish figures and wonder what he thinks about it: does he feel like he is perpetuating certain stereotypes of Iranians or does he feel like he is trying to debunk them? Anyway this video is funny :)
