My family and I are incredibly proud of our heritage. My dad taught me a lot about Armenian culture, and I have a strong connection with my roots. Every year, I honor the memory of the martyrs who were killed during the 1915 Armenian Genocide. Even though so many countries around the world recognize the Genocide, the government of Turkey still denies it.

My family and I are incredibly proud of our heritage. My dad taught me a lot about Armenian culture, and I have a strong connection with my roots. Every year, I honor the memory of the martyrs who were killed during the 1915 Armenian Genocide. Even though so many countries around the world recognize the Genocide, the government of Turkey still denies it.Some people might wonder why I’m talking about history on my blog. And that’s what I’m trying to show…it’s not history. Until this crime is resolved truthfully and fairly, the Armenian people will live with the pain of what happened to their families and the fear of what might happen again to their homeland. So out of respect for all those innocent people that died, I’m putting a spotlight on it today.
Today, thousands of Armenians will come together in Los Angeles to protest against the denial of the genocide and urge the United States government to recognize the Armenian Genocide. I hope that I can bring some attention to this today.
And, this year, April 24 falls on Easter Sunday. Armenians are the first Christian Nation in the world, and almost everyone will be in church to celebrate Easter. Even on this really happy day, we’re going to be remembering the Genocide.
There’s going to be a National Day of Prayer in churches across America to celebrate Easter and commemorate the Genocide.
My thoughts and prayers are with all my fellow Armenians on this really important day. I stand proud with you always.

Kardashian, Review Proper Documentation
A public figure siding on a claim that has never been proven. As everyone, I would suggest Kim Kardashian obtain truthful sources before forming a decision on what really took place during those horrific times.

Educate yourself
Dear Akan,
You must be educated in Turkey where truth is forbidden, justice is unheard of, crime and destruction being the national passtime.
If so many countries have accepted the fact of the Armenian Genocide, then there must be proof, don’t you think so?
Please read a little bit of history, have an open mind like so many of your justice seeking compatriots, and you will realize that the 1st Genocide of the 20th century was perpetrated by the Ottoman Turks, proven in Istanbul court. Many national archives, including that of Turkey, contain enormous amount of documents to prove it.
I would enumerate many references, but wht’s the use. I think you already blindly have made up your mind.
The term "Genocide" was coined in 1944 by a Jewish lawyer called Raphael Lemkin because of what he knew about the Armenian Genocide by the Ottoman Turks.
FYI: The Turks committed genocide on many other nations as well, like the Pontic Greeks, Assyrians, Kurds, and more…
Get educated and stop being ignorant!
