You are right about Bahais not speaking publicly very often about issues related to them on Iranian stations.

I guess one reason for this is that from the very beginning the Bahai community in Iran, as well as individual Bahais, have been accused of being pretty much everything nasty, dangerous, traitorous, conniving etc, under the sun. It seems like there was nothing horrible that the Bahais could not be accused of. And, sadly, many of these innuendos have become accepted as facts by many Iranians, who simply didn't know any better.

As a result, aside from the fact that Bahais do not take part in party politics and taking entrenched political positions, we have become very wary of expressing our views openly to the Iranian media for the fear of being misrepresented. Also, for the fear of making the situation of the Bahais living in Iran even worse, should the authorities there become antagonised at Bahais openly expressing their views.

But, I do agree with one of the commenters here that as Bahais we need to start doing this more often and be less stiff about it. And btw, I find Parazit a very smart, sharp and sassy satirical show.

This Is A Very Serious Subject ...

However, I Have To Say, That I Found Part 2 Absolutely Hilarious ..... :)

OMG

افتخاری هم از چشممون افتاد

Parazit is fun, sharp, honest and always to the point! Thanks for posting, I had missed the last clip before and that's usually my favorite part.

I love parazit.

They are just brilliant. I love how they push us out of our comfort zone to hear things that used to be taboo in our culture.

Also as cyclic forward said we bahais can also loosen up:))

Just love them,

Tahirih

these guys are better than adaams!

Their content and satirical style getting more serious every week, zendeh baad jeddan! It's about time people inside Iran could hear a Bahai authority speak.

Nice interview with some good humor

I think Bahai's finally learned not to be so stiff and get out there and talk about their cause. I wish them every success and this is a good thing for everybody.

Parazit is Hilarious!

Like to an Adaams!

I'm addicted to Parazit. Love you guys!!

Another good one!

They seem getting better, more seasoned, and mature steadily. I hope they'll never fall victim to international politics and American fluid interests.

Bahai spokesperson

Another ground-breaking interview. When was the last time you saw a Bahai official speak on an Iranian station. It's very rare. And in this case, millions in Iran were able to listen directly to a Bahai, probably for the first time. That's progress!

Afarin.
