PROVIDENCE -- An exhibit of prints dealing with the Armenian genocide
will be on display next month at the Mathewson Street United
Methodist Church.
The exhibit, "Man's Inhumanity to Man: The Armenian Genocide -- If I
Start to Cry, I Think I Will Cry Forever" is by John Avakian.
Avakian said the exhibit "represents an extraordinary journey into
darkness and suffering to reclaim my past, and honor my loving
parents who suffered so much," according to the church.
There will be a program relating to the exhibit during Gallery Night
April 21. David S. Thomas, a professor of history at Rhode Island
College, will discuss "The Turkish-Armenian Conflict from World War I
