Cliques

Despite the great pride that all Persians show in their culture, we seem to also put our noses up to Persians that may not be as fitting to the Persian culture as they could be. Naturally, impenetrable cliques form, and gossip flows around the community stronger and more incessant that Niagara Falls. Why? Well, I'm not completely sure. It could be that we value our culture so much that we only want a select few individuals to represent it.
