WATERTOWN, APRIL 9, NOYAN TAPAN - ARMENIANS TODAY. The Massachusetts
Municipal Association voted to end its sponsorship of the No Place
for Hate program due to the Anti-Defamation League's (ADL) continued
ambiguity about the Armenian Genocide and its active opposition to
its recognition, reported the Armenian National Committee.
The action by the nonprofit, nonpartisan association of Massachusetts
cities and towns, comes after at least 12 Massachusetts communities
have already withdrawn from the NPFH program concluding that their
constituents' human rights needs are best served by dissociating
themselves from the ADL, an organization that engages in the worst
form of hate speech: genocide denial.
