American's Experience in Iran :"The Children of Adam" (5 min short)

An half Iranian-Turkish half Dutch/English-Americans experience growing up in America, journeying to Iran and living there for one year.
My name is Nina. I was born in Binghamton New York on March 21, 1982 to an American-Dutch and Welsh mother and an Iranian-Azeri Turkish father. My mother's ancestors have been in America since the time of the early American settlers. They came from Holland and Wales. The Hamblets traveled in Ox carts from Vermont to settle in New York State. They built a home and founded Hambletville. Steven Hancock came from England and founded the Christ Church in Binghamton. David Bryant was a bear hunter and a giant. His hat and shoes are in a museum. My father is an Azeri-Turk from the Iranian side of the tri border area of Turkey, former Soviet Azerbaijan and Iran. It is a very captivating, beautiful and fascinating place, where the Silk Road runs through my Grandfather's old home, where Noah's Arc had landed, and where Saint Jude's grave rests, among the Kurds and the Turks. I have over 200 wonderful and loving family members in Iran, where I lived for 1 year, from 2002-2003.

Beautiful video!

Anti Spanish??? NO! Anti illegal alien is what it is. Try to violate Iran's border laws & see what will happen! You really should think about going back to Iran for good. You will be happier there; a land where your life is not worth as much as a man's testicle. We had our Embassy seized & now the head terrorist is ruling Iran after winning a rigged election.

Enough of you & your stupid video!

Such a prejudice system. Your mixed and it should have been required that you learn about both your cultures. Why would a White woman get with a Muslim guy and make a baby with one if she had something against Muslims. But then again I'm Black and I have slept with White women who were racist towards Black people. But I didn't know until later. I could see a guy but women are supposed to be internal. How can they hold prejudice against a collective and lay down with a person of that group?

This is a very nice video that provides the other side of the story. I believe all Americans sould watch videos such as this to provide balance and pespective to what is seen on several US news stations.
