Vegetarian Ghormeh Sabzi is a flavorful Iranian stew that replaces the traditional meat with an assortment of herbs, beans, and vegetables. Fragrant herbs like parsley, cilantro, and fenugreek are slow-cooked with kidney beans or chickpeas, creating a rich, herbaceous base.

Representation in media

is nowhere to be found for people of Iranian descent so excuse me if I didn't care when Crazy Rich Asians came out. The Asian community has already had Fresh Off the Boat and other shows, and my white American friends love watching K Dramas. I myself watched a Chinese historical soap on Netflix. I just don't think that Asians have a problem with representation- especially positive representation. I have never seen even one Persian character on a TV show. Nope, not even a sassy best friend. Never once.

I didn't realize how much the following would affect me.

So I clicked on this thumbnail because I care about how mainstream media are reporting the recent propaganda by the Bolton and Pompeo administration. I did NOT expect this 2-parted joke.

For context, he was showing a news clip in which a reporter said "There are Iranian fingerprints all over this tanker" or something like that.

I wasn't even mad. I'm used to Iranians getting lumped together with Arabs. But I still automatically said to my fiance, "Hummus isn't Iranian." Then Trevor went on...

I lost my shit. I couldn't believe The Daily Show *didn't* just stereotype a country of 80 million people by saying we eat hummus.

But not only that, he used a Farsi word, sabzi, something we actually eat! And then he shamed the audience for laughing about the hummus, and knowing nothing about Iranian culture.

I was giddy the rest of the night.

There's no representation for Iranians in the media, so this tiny, stupid joke made me incredibly happy. I felt seen for the first time ever on TV. Thank you Trevor Noah.

And I never want to hear about the "lack" of Asians or Latinos on TV or movies. Ever again.
