I'm half Iranian and half Polish! My mom's the Pol and my dad's from Iran. And Nowruz is my all time favourite holiday. It's wonderful to spend time with family (:
i'm actually half persian and half german and i've seen Iran just one time and i think that was my best experience in whole of my life♥️👀🙇🏻♀️👍🏻Persian people are incredibly nice😍👍🏻
I worked for a mixed family in Houston for a few years. He was Persian, she was American. He was one of the funniest guys I’ve ever met, she was a sweetheart & their surprise twin daughters were adorable. When he wasn’t cracking jokes he taught me some important realities about what the world has learned from Persia. It was eye opening. I still think of them & hope they’re as happy now as they were then!!
My mom is half and was raised in Kansas in a similar situation. I'm now 23 and afraid to dig into my roots. Kvon is so right though. Iranians are some of the most welcoming people and it's never too late to make new discoveries.
Aww go to a Persian New Years party. We have one in every big city like Dallas. You’ll learn new things or go to a Persian restaurant and eat Iranian food. We’re friendly.
@@alialahmad4329 I think you're thinking of the Turks and the Kurds... They don't get along. Persians are pretty chill despite what the media says, so they get along with many cultures. History tells us that the Persians were very good at diplomacy and treated cultures they assimilated into their empire well. In fact, some groups became so well-treated that they rose to very high positions in the empire and practically ran the empire but as Persians, not seeking to turn the empire into their own or destroy it from within.
I’m Kurdish too and I was thinking this, newroz is also the first day of spring and the ‘roz’ part means day as in a new beginning, similar to sorani ڕۆژ. I agree I love Iranian culture and it’s interesting to see the similarities that we have
My dad was Iranian. He didn’t really share much of his culture, he was so busy learning to be an American. he loved the USA, he was like a kid in the candy store! I feel I missed out but I did get to go to Iran in the early 70’s.
He wasn't a true patriot, we have to proud to history of our country , When Europeans lived in caves.The Iranians had a civilization and a great Empire.
@@LettuceBunnies The thing is that it's the perspective of a colonized mind. Whether it is Iran or India or even minorities in the U.S, we're colonized minds. We are told that we're less than because we're not the dominant ruling class and so we've internalized that message. I used to be so ashamed of being Muslim as a kid. OMG, I never claimed it. Being Indian, most people assumed I was Hindu and if they asked about religion, I told them that I don't discuss religion or politics with people. Now, as an adult, I'm unapologetically and unabashedly Muslim. That's a part of me and a part that has given me my moral compass and has made me into a kind, compassionate human being so why would I hide it or be ashamed of a significant part of me.
Wow. I regret I didn't watch this sooner🥺. Born and raised in Iran, still livin' in Iran. It would my honour to share this culture with everyone curious and adventurous😁 And thank you dear Kvon for your efforts and sacrifice. Wish you the best
Can’t believe I had not already seen this video. As a Persian who lives in Canada I really appreciate that you shared the details of this holiday and it’s rich history with Americans who probably had no sweet clue about it.
I learned about it several years ago when I was researching something about Megillat Esther. I have a feeling Nowruz is the reason why the springtime date was selected, ie not for Passover.
Thank you man. U doing a great job showing the world what great culture we have in iran. Unfortunately the world doesn't have a good point of view about us persians. U doing a great job. Keep it up.
My father's family is Lebanese while my mother's is "regular white" and as I get older I am trying to be more in touch with my heritage. Such an amazing and inspiring story!
I am Bahá’í and we always celebrate new year. I really like this talk because I learned more about Nawruz! It is such a wonderful introduction to spring!
Thank you for being passionate about your background and sharing this experience with others. It is always a good thing to be intellectually curious. I don't know when you've won that award, but I believe it is never too late to congratulate on an important achievement, so: congrats! You should be proud of yourself.
Pleasure listening to this....been following this guy. Glad he'd come to embrace his Persian culture at a more personal level. Persian is an ancient culture we are all fascinated with but know little about. Keep telling us the story. Love from Mizoram, India.
I may be wrong about this but in ancient culture, Persians saved civilization from babylon. Something about the 'handwriting on the wall'. I'd have to go back and re-read it but it was Persia who took them down.
Everyone is talking about how funny and attractive he is, where as I’m just focused on how satisfying it was when the shadow if his mic matched up perfectly with his nostril and completely disappeared
And when it goes to his mouth and goes back to his nose...Then disappeared... Then it happens again.😅😂😂😂 Lolll I hate you... Now I can't focus on this handsome man that I just fell in love with
Your name is not wierd , Named even before formation of united states The name of Kvon ( کِیوان ) or as it refere to k1 or kvan by persians when it wants to write with latin alphabet Countain of 2 parts 1- K = کِی : the one's own name of some kings like (k khousro = کِیخسرو ) or ( k kavoos = کِیکاوس ) These names are in the book of Shahnameh written in the 9th century. 2- Von = وان and بان : Means protective or guardian K+ von / کِی+وان = کیوان = kvon : Means king's protector Also one the name of saturn planet is kvon in persian.
Our celebrations and holidays are so beautiful, meaningful, and exciting; from Nowrus and 13 Be Dar, to Yalda, 4 Shanbe Suri, Sepandarmazgan, and many many others. That's one of the beauties of Persian culture; we have at least a celebration/big event per month to celebrate life, nature, happiness, and so much more
I'm 100% Sicilian--my father's side came over a couple generations earlier, but my mother emigrated. It wasn't until I traveled to Italy to meet the family there, that I discovered that Saint days (or name days) were a thing, and celebrated like birthdays! So you had two celebrations a year--one for your birthday and another for your "onomastico", or the Saint day of the saint you were named for. St. Joseph's day even comes with it's own pastry and pasta dish! I get it--kinda feel like I'm owed a few back celebrations too! ;) And speaking of which, btw, Happy Birthday!
I can so relate to this, thank you! I have an Iranian father who married my mother an Italian Australian woman it I've never grown up Persian. Only now I'm slowly getting in touch with my other half.
I've noticed a lot of half Persian kids never being taught about Persia or Persian culture which is very unfortunate. I wish all Persians were more proud of their roots!
What do you mean by the [western calendar]? Are you referring to the one indicting the current year 2019? That is the Armenian, Gregorian Calendar! St. Gregory the Illuminator had actually studied the Persian calendar as well as others in relation to formulation of his own Armenian, Gregorian Christian Calendar! Furthermore, may you specify some of the [ 22 times more] accuracies of the Persian calendar in relation please? Ref. (Google, Wikipedia)
@@St.Finger Honestly I don't know about the accuracy, but what's beautiful about Persian Calendar, is that it's a solar calendar. Meaning the first day of the new year (Noruz) is the first day of the first month of the first season of the year. So first day of spring is when the year starts. Everything is beautiful, fresh and new, and each season is exactly 3 complete months.
The reason Jalali is not used is - it counts NIGHTS. It is accurate because it traces movement of the moon in relation to stars. Gregorian needs 1 extra DAY every 4 years because it counts DAYS.
My dad is Central Asian and Iranian and my mom is Eastern European. Imovef to the US when I was 9, I grew up estranged from the Farsi language, Nowruz, and pretty much most Persian cultural things. This inspired me to learn about it
We celebrate Nooruz in Kyrgyzstan, every year in March. We cook a very special meal for the whole night, making wishes, telling stories. It is a great occasion when the whole neighborhood gathers around one big table to talk, play games, sing and dance.
Colorado is like that! Out East they say Color-ah-do vs. Colo-RAD-o 😂 Thanks for educating me about NevAda! Really appreciate the story learning about your culture in your mid-20s
Yes, I like your "back child support" comment lol, finding out as a Potawatomi woman about our Native new years was a shock as an adult! it's also a celebration to ring in the new year, with the first thunderstorm signaling the end of winter and beginning of spring, mother nature-based. (This is just the Great Lakes Natives' new year, I cannot speak to the other regional Native nations' new years around the USA/Canada) omg this video is 7 years old...I just found out about your comedy, very humorous, my heart definitely feels lighter after watching!
I got to know some Persians over the past four years and I love hanging out with them and learning Farsi to be able to connect with them. They get surprised each time we meet as I use a new Farsi word and jokingly ask me if I am actually not Persian, and I jokingly tell them I am actually from Ishfahan (a city in Iran which has beautiful Persian architecture and that I'd love to visit). They get a good laugh out of that! They loved sharing their food with me (generously!) and of course, Persian food is one of the things we love to discuss at each meeting (and I love to learn about).
You are great Kvon. I was feeling not good enough teaching my kids about Turkish culture in immigrant country. I felt better after listening Kvon. There is big changes my kids might be ambassador of my culture. They are going to find out with objective perspectives.
I'm Iranians and I'm really proud of our culture specially New Year celebration . And wandering that you really didn't know about نوروز or just kidding! Besides that I enjoyed this. 😈😉
As a Persian kid who moved with his parents, I have to say that I am lucky to have had these cultural experiences my whole life, even if it has always been behind the closed doors of my nuclear family and video calls thousands of miles away. Anybody else here like me?
@TinaYojka BabaYojkina yes, but I believe Keyvon is an persian name ,at least the first part of it which I'm sure is persian, K just like the letter in engliah alphabets mean king and we have so many names like this which were the past kings' names, like Keikhosro we also have Khosro
I celebrated this with my friend this year. Fun fact: it was new year, but I also had a bunch of her aunts telling me what a special day my birthday was on! It was my birthday.
It's no secret that the European West took a lot from the East and from tradional cultures of the Americas and Africa. I'm glad to see so many comedians owning their cultural and ethic heritage, sharing it, teaching the world is much more complex than we could be fooled to think it seems. It's a New Day, it's Nowruz!
Thanks alot Keivan because of your explanations👍so happy to hear all that stuff about Persia and Persian people cause some people dont even really know where is Persia or anything about it...👏👏👏👏👏
Nowruz Piruz to you handsome man and to all Iranians + Other Nations ...but my son is half Persian and half American too ... I have educated him since he was born...told him to be proud of it...
You're right K-von, after knowing Nowruz celebratipn, after watching their New Year show, i called right away my bestfriend who is a Persian and asked her to go in Iran😍
Keyvon jan( means dear keyvon), you are such a wonderful person and know that we are all proud of you because you are such a talented and most important very decent human being. Many thanks for sharing this video and good luck to you.
His father never told hm about Persian new year because he probably didn't have anyone to celebrate it with so he just ignored the whole thing all together
Aw Kvon , You just became my favorite comedian, I love you for wanting to know about your Iranian culture and Nowruz holiday, I am so sorry your dad didn’t tell you anything about it, it has to do with being a man maybe, if you had an Iranian mom , I am sure she would not miss it ! it is an awesome holiday and I hope you will enjoy everything about it and spend it with awesome friends…. A lot of us that had to leave Iran or got raised out of Iran lost our roots and miss them dearly … I love you and you are an Iranian , not a half Iranian, but a proud one ❤️🌹🌺🌷 By the way, kayvon is the Persian name of Saturn and Saturn according to Roman mythology is Jupiter’s father, and also is ancient god of agriculture, so you have an awesome Persian name!☺️😘🥰 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👌👌👌👌👌👌❤️❤️❤️🌹🌹🌹🌹😘😘😘😘🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺

This is cool as fuck
Keyvon jan( means dear keyvon), you are such a wonderful person and know that we are all proud of you because you are such a talented and most important very decent human being. Many thanks for sharing this video and good luck to you.
His father never told hm about Persian new year because he probably didn't have anyone to celebrate it with so he just ignored the whole thing all together
Aw Kvon , You just became my favorite comedian, I love you for wanting to know about your Iranian culture and Nowruz holiday, I am so sorry your dad didn’t tell you anything about it, it has to do with being a man maybe, if you had an Iranian mom , I am sure she would not miss it ! it is an awesome holiday and I hope you will enjoy everything about it and spend it with awesome friends…. A lot of us that had to leave Iran or got raised out of Iran lost our roots and miss them dearly … I love you and you are an Iranian , not a half Iranian, but a proud one ❤️🌹🌺🌷
By the way, kayvon is the Persian name of Saturn and Saturn according to Roman mythology is Jupiter’s father, and also is ancient god of agriculture, so you have an awesome Persian name!☺️😘🥰
