Same Old Cliché: Armenian Weddings
The amount of weddings I have been dragged to throughout the years is more than I would like to admit. It’s no secret that Armenians generally have enough family members to equal the population of a small village, or perhaps even three. Even if you happen to be the friend of Sako’s second cousin’s neighbor, [...]
Human Rights Violations in South Caucasus, Middle East Continue
The South Caucasus, along with the Middle East seems to be a perpetual hot bed for human rights violations, a major problem that continues to escalate in these war torn and economically unstable regions. Though the issue extends to the citizens in those regions, they have spilled over to activists as well as journalists, which [...]
Watch This: In Search of Kim Kardashian
Although she’s only half-Armenian, socialite and reality star Kim Kardashian has strangely become a symbol for Armenian identity perhaps world wide. In fact, she is probably the most well known Armenian as of 2009. This self-proclaimed Armenian Princess even displays her location on Twitter as Armenia. So naturally, when La Coacha, comedian and chisme queen [...]
Review: Sayat Nova Dance Company in Los Angeles
Although their last performance in Los Angeles took place 10 years ago, the Sayat Nova Dance Company’s (SNDC) trek from Boston to the city with the second largest population of Armenians outside of Armenia last Sunday was met with roaring applause, praise and a good number of congratulatory bouquets within the almost full auditorium of [...]

The campaign will begin on Nov. 25 with a march that coincides on the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women by the United Nations. Workshops, [...]
The Intersection of Ethnicity and Embarrassment
I, like the rest of the world, watched in horror as the events at Fort Hood in Texas, in which Army Psychiatrist Major Nidal Malik Hassan opened fire, killing 13 and injuring dozens of others, played out last week. It was one of those monumental events, much like the Mumbai attacks and of course, the [...]
The Khohanotz: Imam Bayildi
Imam Bayildi, a Turkish dish that translates simply to the “Imam Fainted” is vegetable ambrosia. The aroma it produces while being made is enough to make your mouth water. It’s also an easy,quick and healthy alternative to an microwave dinner. If you love olive oil or eggplants, this flavorful dish is for you. The name [...]
Los Angeles Protest Photos Featured in Haykakan Zhamanak
By far the best response I’ve received on this space I’ve created has been the report filed on the Los Angeles Armenia-Turkey protocol protests exactly one month ago. The comments and views were exactly what I needed to keep me going. It validated the idea that there was a need for a new, alternative voice [...]
Overheard on the Net: Princesses, Cab Drivers and Halloween
Why do all Armenian chicks try to dress like Kim Kardashian even when they weigh 300 lbs? Armenian princesses get on my nerves. Shut up before I knock you out with your own UGGs and steal your daddy’s Benz. I wish the question and comment above had a simple retort, but it doesn’t. Why do [...]
