good article I got a student who shouted out "Happy is the one who says I am Turk" every morning, but when in class came close to me and said "teacher, do u know indeed I'm Kurd, but I can speak only a few words". She said it in a way as if being a Kurd was something disgraceful. And I told her she is lucky to have the opportunity to learn Kurdish as well as Turkish. I suggested that she learned Kurdish from her parents. Well.. I dont know... :-S why cant everyone be just themselves? studnoe chustno!!

why cant everyone be just themselves?
The answer is simple: Because of close-minded, nationalist/near racist people.
The sad thing is that many of them, still, are not aware where racism starts, where it ends, what it is and how racist they are..

who says my teachers were open-minded? Only 1 of them was. And he wasnt a formal school teacher at all!
Yes, they are educated in a way that some people wanted them to be educated. And they are continuing to educate ppl in the way they were educated. Clear?

such a shame to make ugly policies based on unvolitional (ethnics,beliefs,nationalities etc..)criterions.And i think our great country's one of main problem that,we still trying to creat new policies for make stronger our democracy depend on ethnics or beliefs,while a real democracy's road pass on from a strong and just economical system.Only science,fabrics,production,more employ,productivity,justly shariing can make stronger our democracy by to be respectfull to all unvolitional div ersities under one flag and in the same borders...But pity false intellectuals using inncoent people's unvolitional diversities just for keep their chairs and just for their selfish political aims,we need more food,more friendship,more understanding,better education instead of to be be fish on fishooks of foxy politicans or false intellectuals.And i think everyone have to be aware of that ''Turkishness''only an upper culture and always possible to live in peace and side by side under of this upper culture by keeping our ethnical and belief diversities...
