Are Armenians white????

Re: Are Armenians white????

How about the Western Armenians from Arab countries that portray themselves as Middle Eastern?

"How about the Armenians in the West that portray themselves as white trash Amerikatsis?" I don't see a difference between your question and the one I just posed. However, what do both have to do with the situation in Armenia? She is saying there is a problem in the homeland itself. That is inexcusable, if true.

Plus, I don't know what you're talking about I've seen women in Armenia dressing very European, there are European clothes stores all over the place now, and many dress rather openly, especially during night. I don't see that arab influence in armenia, except in rabiz.

Do you have any sources of foreigners visiting Georgia and Armenia, and their reactions?



doesn't look to "european" to me

My source was my foreign friend who visited both countries recently. Don't you think that the same could be said about Armenia ? ( your quote)...
And that is the point, that Georgians make propaganda to appear European, how many of their readers will ever visit Georgia to see it for themselves?

We can't let our children be like this, where they do not know their identity.

That's going to get increasingly common since our world community is becoming more globalized. In other words, trends of cultures are starting to be seen in EVERY country's youths. For instance, my brother and I both stopped called ourselves "Mexican American" -- unless you're the census, we tell you we're "American."

Let's hope Armenians never adopt this practise for themselves.

That's a problem too, with the Armenians that try to act like black thugs. Those don't have to do with problem in Armenia (still big problems of course) but I still don't understand how armenians are acting as arabs, really the major influence there is russian, and also western of course. I've seen most women dress very western, and rather fashionable.

American culture is dangerous to small ethnic groups like ours, it advocates assimilation and makes it very easy for even first generation immigrants to "assimilate" in the process losing their culture and falling into the American identity pot.

I hate to break it to you, but I already see it.
In fact, this whole thread regarding the debate of if Armenians are "white" or "not" is the start, so to speak.

In America, for instance, let's say your kids are born here, raised here, in order for them to succeed here, they need to be "global" citizens - aware of the common threads between cultures to make communication easier and therefore make more money. This can lead to either them drifting away from the Armenian Identity and more into the Global Identity. (ie: I am from California, I'm American - I am part of the country, speaking to you, in your country.;... and so forth).

America is just a temporal distortion in the time continuum. Its identity stealing, culture killing days are coming to an end. Resistance isn't futile.

I think the reasoning behind an Armenian identifying as an American is different. They are either assimilated to the point of no return or they feel "bullied" by American society which often seems to be non-accepting of "ethnics" or they just wanna save the embarassment of an ignoramus not knowing what an Armenian is and calling us Arabs or asking if "Armeynyans are Muzlims?" so they just say they're American.

Re: Are Armenians white????

There's one way to know if a person is American or Armenia. If asked "Who would you fight for in case of a war between Armenia and USA?", if the person responds USA, he is American, if responds Armenia, than still Armenian.

Of course a large simplification, but still a good indicator.
