Tetragrammaton with Rick Rubin
Connecting with Ancestral Roots and Heritage in Armenia
The speaker shares their first experience visiting Armenia, describing it as a mystical and profound experience due to the deep historical roots and the presence of ancient churches and buildings. The speaker's parents are from Western Armenia, having survived the genocide and relocated to Syria and Lebanon. Visiting Armenia allowed the speaker to connect with their ancestral roots and feel the deep history and culture of the country, which was distinct from growing up in an Armenian community outside of Armenia. The speaker reflects on the differences between American Armenians and Armenians in Armenia, highlighting the unique cultural identities and experiences of each group, as demonstrated during a trip to Armenia with Anthony Bourdain in 2017.
