I asked a history teacher back in high school why we don’t study the Armenian genocide. Her response, “Because it’s unimportant.” Being the great granddaughter of survivors, I had to show her my anger towards that statement. And for that, I failed her class. People have to recognize that we still suffer, and people should learn about it in history class, as we learn about the many genocides that took place in WWII.

OMg i didnt know armenia had a genocide, but if the kurdish genocide has been recognized then why hasnt the armenian genocide been recognizeds after so many years its pathetic.. it should no longer be a political matter but historical at least. As for the turks of course they willl never admit to that horrible crime cause they dont have balls to do so. now i dont want to be rude but many turks out there have this arrogant attitude towards others than there own especially towards kurds and greeks and so on, as if it genetic uno. ???

my father and his father/mother/sister escaped the burning of smyrna in 1922, they were able to bribe their way on board a japanese freighter.. the majority of the other christian minorities (greeks/armenians) were not so fortunate.. turks must begin the healing process but cannot without admission of the act.. i will not forget but, though it’s very hard, feel that love is the only answer
