YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIn today’s livestream, Kevork Almassian speaks with Iranian activist and poetry teacher Shargh Zadeh about what it means to be Iranian in the West, where he sees himself inside today’s Iranian diaspora, and why questions of identity, exile, authenticity, and representation have become so politically charged. We also discuss his work translating and teaching Persian poetry, what Sufism means in the Persian tradition, whether Persian and Arabic Sufi currents differ, and Trump’s latest signal that the U.S. could end the war in Iran without a formal deal.
