Sunday's Persian Parade in New York City was a festival of Flower, dance and happiness. Beautifully arranged after 5 years of hard works. All American band played "Ey Iran"! Floats were carrying flags from all over the world. Ravagh and many others organized after parade party and the one with Hengameh was the one we attended and it was great. [Video clip]

There were more people at my aunt's wedding!

With all due respect, 

By looking at the parade pictures, it seems to me, there were more people at my 75 years old aunt's wedding  than this Persian parade. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Those were good old days back in Ghazvin

"Persian" parade

by anti-racist (not verified) on

Presumably no Iranians who are Kurds, Lors, Azeris, Baluchis, Arabs, etc, were welcome at this "Persian" only parade.

Persian nationalism is the worst!
