IRANIANS in the United States
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page paper discusses that Iranian school
textbooks teach that Iranians are only in the
boundaries of the country. There is no mention of
Iranians outside of Iran, and there is no mention
of a single female role model. However in folklore
it is said that, ``Iranians are like water in a
vase. If the vase is a globe, they become a globe;
if the vase is long-necked, they become long-
necked.'' Resolving this duality, or living within
it, is the challenge presented to Iranians who are
now living within the United States.
