Remembering the Armenian Genocide
Often referred to as the first genocide of the twentieth century, the Armenian Genocide was marked by the systematic persecution, deportation, and mass murder, under the cover of World War I, of approximately 1 million Armenian Christians living in the Ottoman Empire from 1915 to 1923. Most of the Ottoman Turkish officials who organized and helped perpetrate the genocide escaped prosecution. To this day, the Turkish government denies any role in the genocide and refuses to acknowledge that a genocide occurred. Historians from the Genocide Education Project join us to recount the experiences of those murdered, shed light on the motives of the perpetrators, and discuss efforts to memorialize the victims.
There is no cost to attend this event, but registration is required.
