I can’t help it! I’m a mrashsti through and through and recognize that accent like the back of my hand. Have you ever met a Turkish person that actually knew their roots? Not likely, and you’ll hear my recent interaction with a Turkish man from Adana, the birth home of my father and his family. You can’t make this stuff up of course, and I implore and empower you to always have the hard conversations and dialogues even if it feels a bit wrong to do so.
