Now, any common sense, informal, non-scientific survey taken of Iranians on the subject of marriage to Blacks would reveal an overwhelming disapproval. There's nothing wrong with wanting to preserve one's Iranian culture and Iranian racial characteristics in one's offspring. That is absolutely not racism. Everyone in this world has some prejudice towards something or someone.
Some people are more bigoted than others.
Yes, racism is alive and well, but all over the world. So let's just ignore these idiotic and ignorant folks that can't handle even a picture of a bi-racial couple, people, and move on. I hope you have a wonderful life together and 'paayeh ham digar pir beshavid'. I hope The Iranian DOES continue to challenge our views by presenting the beliefs and lives of all Iranians. But one day will rain upon the world's stage, Upon our heads, and pour our story out.
