Kenyatte Tilghman Is your keyboard stuck on Caps Lock? Question: if it is morally wrong for Whites to vote based on race, it should be the same for Blacks, correct? MLK argued that people should be judged based on the content of their character, not the color of their skin. Blacks want to be judged by the content of their character, but then turn around and vote based on race. Someone like Maxine Waters and Frederica Wilson being elected is clear evidence of that. I'm not saying this girl has poor character, just saying...
Kenyatte Tilghman Right on. Well I guess it's an added bonus for me if the candidate is a White male...because... reasons. Btw...disenfranchised? In what way have you been deprived of your rights? Inequity (poverty) is not the same as inequality (oppression). There are job postings I see now that exclude me solely based on my race and gender. That is not equality, that is inequality, and the opposite of meritocracy. I also grew up impoverished. Black people are not disenfranchised or oppressed based solely on the fact that they're Black. Some would say with good reason that with race quotas and AA, poor Blacks have an easier path to the middle class than poor Whites at this point. P.S. : Your Caps Lock is still stuck.
As an Iranian I’m so proud to see someone like Yara representing our country!!She’s sooo smart, beautiful, and classy!!! Keep doing what ur doing beautiful ur future is BRIGHT 😘😘
Adi Adiani Her father is Iranian which makes her kin to your people. The father's seed is the one determine's identity. Therefore, that makes her your kind and not ours.
Bernie Mat Listening to her puts my 17 y.o. self to so much shame. :) Also, she's hands down smarter and better informed than any of the people interviewing her, not just on this show.
smrkva yes she is brave but don't underestimate yoursel Everyone is unique in his or her way if you want to better yourself start informing yourself on how Without comparing yourself.
More like Whoopi Goldberg. She just said that Islam is 50,000 years old. LOL She is an intellectual midget. Meghan McCain's opinion on Iran would of course be less insightful than a person that is half Persian.
davey Crockett and what have you done to help . "Standing by them" is like talking without action . At least she's talking about it and bringing light to it . Otherwise ppl would be less aware .
Valerie Verhoeven Wow I'm discovering more and more intriguing info about you. So you're a conservative who happens to be a Trump supporter with a habit of calling people who disagree with you "Lib-tards". See now we're getting somewhere with why you're trolling the comment section. Continue with your stuff dude, you're here for our entertainment 😂
Vishal Sancheti Brainwashed ....😐😑 are you OK? This is a young girl who is aware what's happening in her country(btw she's half iranian ), she's using her platform for awareness not alot of people know what's happening in Iran.I guess you heard too much big words and saw too much women on a panel for your comfort.
Thats your problem, being articulate does make what you say true, you agree comparing a tax break for all Americans to a regime that kills protesters is extremely ignorant and dumb, of course morons like you will say "But...but...she articulated it well". Fucking idiot, this is why you became dumb
sweet rocka She never compared the GOP tax break with the protests in Iran. You should listen again to what she said because you're the one who sounds like a mental midget!
+True DukeBlue7 all your counterpoints are just conservative talking points. No facts involved. You guys lie and deflect as much as trump does and somehow still wanna be taken seriously. That only works within your cult of a party not in the real word smh
Neither does she: She actually compared our tax plan to the economic plight of the Iranian people?! Iran has 26% unemployment and rampant inflation......the price of chicken went up 40% this past year! You are all the mis-informed rabble that keep electing the worst leaders for this country because the only thing that matters to you are looks and well someone can speak.
+Valerie Verhoeven ummmm you need to reevaluate the long term repercussions of this tax plan on the poor and middle class before you totally dismiss her assessment. It's goin to devastate poor and middle class whites and since everything in this country hits communities of color harder than the whites, imagine what those conditions will look like. Not that far off from what she said. Stop listening to the talking points of this administration and the tweets and do some independent research for yourself. The truth will make you free
Where are you getting your 'long-term' predictions of the tax plan's impact on the middle-class? Please provide the sources for your conclusions, because I think you are the one that is merely spewing Democratic propaganda. I have not heard even strong critics of the plan saying unemployment will be at 25% and we will experience double-digit inflation. Do you even understand economics, is another question, as it appears you have no clue how just the reduced corporate rate should benefit you. So please, enlighten me with your 'independent research' Adam Smith
This makes me so happy!! I’m also half black half Iranian and I never thought I would ever see another half black half Iranian person (except for my relatives) until now! 💖
Yara is awesome! Such a beautiful and intelligent young lady. Wise beyond her years. Also being Black/Iranian, it's good to see she is proud of her Middle Eastern heritage.
Sandra Fernandez There were probably burial rituals 50,000 years that involved religious practices but obviously they don’t exist today. Although we can’t tell for sure because religion in the way we think about it needs writing which has only existed for just over 5000 years.
Sandra Fernandez Yea that’s what I was trying to say. I looked back at the comment and it’s badly worded. Religions like Islam need to develop with writing which was only invented about 5000 years ago. If Whoopi means generally then she has somewhat of a point but I do think she meant a major religion like Christianity or Islam.
So here for Yara! Love her and how she presents herself. I wish more young girls would be as woke as her and open to understand and discuss politics instead of just dwelling on the shallow things in life.
I'm an old Iranian guy and don't know this young lady, but she definitely knows what she is talking about, and I wish her all the best. By the way, you actually showed pictures from the pro-government rallies! If you want to get an impression of the women's role in the demonstrations and Iran generally, you can take a look at e.g. Masih Alinejad's page on Facebook.
@@cookiesandrainbows3322 against, unlike America in Iran the government don't represent what the people want, and if you disagree with the government you have a target on you and your families back. That's why many journalists who write stories the government doesn't like are either in jail or have 'gone missing', many have been killed or arrested, which is why this protest was so risky cause ppl who went are putting their lives on the line last time there was a protest which many ppl went thousands were killed, a woman took off her headscarf to advocate for change and women's rights and she was killed. The government is so fucked up what used to be a beautiful country is somewhere people are now trying to escape from cause freedom doesn't exist there anymore.
Everything she said was true and down to the core. It is about how these political decision affect people in their daily lives. It isn't about two governments fighting each other but the most important aspect in the people. Persian women are upfront when it comes to their lives! Well said Yara. You are soooo beautiful
In Saudi Arabia 2012 Ali Mohammad Al-Nimr a 17 year old boy. Was sentenced to death by crucification for antigovernment protests in a shiite province in Qatif. The US sold Saudi Arabia $350 billion worth weapons. There where anti government protests in Honduras where 30 people died, last month. Since 2009 the US has sent $114 million dollar in security assistance.
Bravo The View for bringing Yara as guest. She is smart & involve in young generation politic. She is a great example of what young intellectual brain of future American politics needs.
She is so proud of her iranien heritage and so supportive of her iranien people marching over there despite the current regime and despite the US policies leaded via trump tweets! She is also embracing her blackish heritage so well ... she is so articulated and human, I can see her in office!
Don't get me wrong I love Blackish and Yara Shahidi. But I'd rather hear her voice and not what the show or directors have written for her. She is very intelligent and I would love to hear her point of view more often.
Deja Peterson Well that's what she's doing right now, of course you're never going to hear her voice on the show because it's not her show, if she writes/creates her own show, then you'll hear her voice, but it'll probably be a little different as although she seems very intelligent & articulate now, it will likely be 10-20 years before that happens, if it does, so her views & experiences will have changed slightly (not saying she'll have completely flipped, just grown), plus, we'll be living in a different time, hopefully a better & more peaceful one
+95% of protesters = men +3000 people arrested = men 5 people died in prison under torture = all of them men But sure, women did all of the work. As an Iranian, it pains me to see my countrymen die under torture and then not only be given the recognition but be ridiculed by American women who never even set foot inside this country.
finisher3x "Which is true". Really? Well no. Majority of protesters were men, all of the people who got capture were men and all of the people who died were men. So, it is not true. I know this, because I'm from Iran. It's like you have a movement that every single person that got killed and imprisoned was black and in the end bunch of white people sit around and take credit for everything and look down to the blacks and say :"Why is it that in every movement, whites are in the forefront?"
Once again, she did not say that the majority of the protesters were women. Her position was that these movements were started and led initially by women.
finisher3x Once again, these movements were not initially started or lead by women. It's a lie. Now, there is another movement going on in the country that is consist almost entirely of women and it is against mandatory hijab, and more power to them. However, the movement that they are talking about, is lead, and initiated by middle and lower class men. I think we should give credit to men and women where it's due and not try to lie in order to prove an imaginary point, which here is that almost every movement is initiated and lead by women.
Women close to me have been executed during the protest in Iran so stfu with your bs, men and women were killed and men and women are suffering, we have to unite to fix whatever is left of Iran instead of further dividing ourselves cause the government is doing enough of that already.
Everyone surprised at how articulate she is; while it is nice she is an actress after all! This is the first time I've heard an american(s), as whoopi said it too, say iran rather than I-ran, & although I generally don't care for exact pronunciation of pronouns, as long as it's close enough, just because I am pretty good at them (without sounding like bragging), I don't expect everyone else to be, but this was 1 that got me, being as it sounds like 2 separate words mostly.
As the son of the former Shah of Iran, I've never heard of this woman, am not sure why anyone would listen to any actor for an opinion on any political subject. It is a bane of American television, and in my 50s I'm just exhausted of it.
Yara is clearly nervous and not totally comfortable in this setting. You can see from the way she’s fidgeting with her hands and rings and her expressions after she speaks. Yet whenever she speaks, both what she says and how she speaks are still powerful.
Today what happens in Iran is not connected to Iranian's aspirations for freedom and human liberty, it is rather to economic problems and lowering social life standards. Each country refers to it from its own perspective of interest
Quizzly Bear so what did she say, lay it out for me. School this international relations degree holder on Iran and its relationship to the US along with the internal issues, further that of Middle East.
i dont understand why everyone says women in iran are fighting in the first row for freedom. but 95% of all the unfortunate poeple who died in the protests are men. somethings off with perception.
This girl is dangerous. Beautiful, articulate and smart.
The Dude Abides .
And she’s only 18
Dangerous. How dangerous ?
@@sivuyisejika1461 dangerous because how intelligent and beautiful and articulate she is. Its just a saying, its not meant literally.
Simp
Dear Yara, your future is soooo bright it blinds my eyes. Keep shining!
I pray for Iran
Am I seeing what I think I'm seeing? Is the panel of the View actually in ideological agreement with Trump on the Iran protests?
Kenyatte Tilghman
Would you vote for a person just for being Black? Be honest.
Kenyatte Tilghman
Is your keyboard stuck on Caps Lock?
Question: if it is morally wrong for Whites to vote based on race, it should be the same for Blacks, correct?
MLK argued that people should be judged based on the content of their character, not the color of their skin.
Blacks want to be judged by the content of their character, but then turn around and vote based on race. Someone like Maxine Waters and Frederica Wilson being elected is clear evidence of that.
I'm not saying this girl has poor character, just saying...
Kenyatte Tilghman
Right on. Well I guess it's an added bonus for me if the candidate is a White male...because... reasons.
Btw...disenfranchised? In what way have you been deprived of your rights? Inequity (poverty) is not the same as inequality (oppression). There are job postings I see now that exclude me solely based on my race and gender. That is not equality, that is inequality, and the opposite of meritocracy. I also grew up impoverished. Black people are not disenfranchised or oppressed based solely on the fact that they're Black. Some would say with good reason that with race quotas and AA, poor Blacks have an easier path to the middle class than poor Whites at this point.
P.S. : Your Caps Lock is still stuck.

Mmmm the force is strong with this one. 👏👏👏

I'm Iranian to...
Yara is extremely smart and articulate. She needs to run for office.
Will B , YES!!!!!!.....PEACE.
Not when she makes extremely stupid comparisons between Iran and the US, no thanks, she is a complete moron
sweet rocka you are what we like to refer to as a HATER!!
and Ren D, you are what we call gullible.....she speaks well, so she must be great at legislating! People like you should not vote.
Valerie Verhoeven. I don't vote. Voting is for the gullible like yourself who actually think it makes a difference
Yara is so well spoken. I love her, just beautiful
Can’t believe this girl is only 17
Bernie Mat Listening to her puts my 17 y.o. self to so much shame. :)
Also, she's hands down smarter and better informed than any of the people interviewing her, not just on this show.
smrkva yes she is brave but don't underestimate yoursel
Everyone is unique in his or her way if you want to better yourself start informing yourself on how
Without comparing yourself.
smrkva *without comparing yourself to others, yoi only have to take the better and positve aspect of others to improve your being
No, I'm cool with comparing my 17 year old self to a present day 17 y.o.
I'm over 40 now. It's not a self esteem issue, just an observation.
I KNOW RIGHT LIKE HOWWWWWWWWWWWWW
Love Yara!! She was ready to tell everyone how she feels and was really annoyed at society basically on their ignorance
Yara is 1000 times more Qualified to be on that seat than Meghan McCain.
wow, you really don't get tired of making dumb statements do you?
Why? Are you stalking me?
Here's a question, show me one episode of The View, where Meghan McCain doesn't mention her dad! :)
More like Whoopi Goldberg. She just said that Islam is 50,000 years old. LOL She is an intellectual midget. Meghan McCain's opinion on Iran would of course be less insightful than a person that is half Persian.
Can this young lady be part of the view permanently?
YES THE VIEW NEEDS A TEEN
cristina solano yeah she goes to Harvard in the fall and has a TV show about her as well haha, unfortunately, she might be a bit too busy rn
the view is cancer. Yara is too good for these people who mechanically repeat what media sells them.
She's too good for this show.
Yara is amazing beautiful x
Very impressed by this girl, i played WOW when i was 17, she is actively participating in shaping the world...
Vagabond
She's 17....??
I believe she is 18 now. You can check. She started University/College this year.

Wow ok. I just became a fan. She is so smart. And she's not even a legal adult yet.
wow ok. You just became a fan of someone who is brainwashed by liberal ideology. She is so smart. Wow ok.

The South of Iran has many Afro Iranians who have lived in the country for over 500 years. It's a big community that is part of Iran now.

Thank you Yara for representing Iranian Americans! I have family from Mashad as well 😊
Yara as IRANIAN i am proud of you and appreciate you bringing up this subject.

This is the first time I've heard an american(s), as whoopi said it too, say iran rather than I-ran, & although I generally don't care for exact pronunciation of pronouns, as long as it's close enough, just because I am pretty good at them (without sounding like bragging), I don't expect everyone else to be, but this was 1 that got me, being as it sounds like 2 separate words mostly.
She is astonishingly intelligent.
I love whoopie she’s always right to the point and open minded
She got them Iranian brainssss🇮🇷❤️
You cannot undermine a 17 year old! How intelligent and beautiful she is!
Love Yara !! And I’m here for Growish , excited to have a new show to watch with my roommates while we procrastinate
She is SO much smarter that SO MANY celebs who are older and the same age and still they are looked up to more.
She’s so beautiful and smart
As the son of the former Shah of Iran, I've never heard of this woman, am not sure why anyone would listen to any actor for an opinion on any political subject. It is a bane of American television, and in my 50s I'm just exhausted of it.
Dude your not him
@@Kjswiftc How observant. What does that have to do with anything?
@@Kjswiftc I am.

Thank you Yara. ممنون یارا جان.
Yara is clearly nervous and not totally comfortable in this setting. You can see from the way she’s fidgeting with her hands and rings and her expressions after she speaks. Yet whenever she speaks, both what she says and how she speaks are still powerful.
This girl is very bright!
This girl is dangerous. Beautiful, articulate and smart
Such a beautiful young black queen 😍
Yara Shahidi for president... PERIOD!
Today what happens in Iran is not connected to Iranian's aspirations for freedom and human liberty, it is rather to economic problems and lowering social life standards. Each country refers to it from its own perspective of interest
Wow, I'm in love. What an intelligent, confident, beautiful woman
A very bright young woman.
She's so smart and beautiful
I didn't understand a single thing she said, LMAO. So many big words.
you must be American
bluedasher74 she said a lot of nothing
she's american though....
devinngeorge no, you're just not intelligent enough to understand what she was saying.
Quizzly Bear so what did she say, lay it out for me. School this international relations degree holder on Iran and its relationship to the US along with the internal issues, further that of Middle East.
Wow, I'm very pleasantly surprised that they are taking about this topic
Good for her! Smart and beautiful
What an articulate beauty !
i dont understand why everyone says women in iran are fighting in the first row for freedom. but 95% of all the unfortunate poeple who died in the protests are men. somethings off with perception.
If Yara isnt the epitome of brains and beauty i dont know what is!!
