DR. HILMAR KAISER TO SPEAK AT YOUTH RALLY FOR RECOGNITION OF ARMENIAN
GENOCIDE
NORTHRIDGE, CA - The ARF Shant Student Association (ARF Shant) will
hold its annual "Youth Rally for Recognition of the Armenian Genocide"
on the evening of Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008 at the central square of
California State University, Northridge (CSUN).
The keynote speaker of the evening will be Dr. Hilmar Kaiser, an
Ottoman-era archival expert and Armenian Genocide historian. Kaiser
will present new findings that shed light on the responsibility of
Ottoman Turkish officials in the Armenian Genocide.
The ARF Shant Student Association chose to hold the rally, an annual
tradition, at CSUN this year, because of the university's status of
having the largest number of Armenian college students outside of
Armenia. The CSUN Armenian Student Association is a co-organizer of
the event.
The event will also contain an artistic program along with speeches by
various community and student group leaders. The Youth Rally is free
of charge and open to the public. More information is available
online at http://www.arfshant.org/.
The ARF Shant Student Association's mission is to politicize and
mobilize the Armenian university and college student population in
Southern California to further the Armenian cause. The ARF Shant and
CSUN Armenian Student Associations are full members of the
Confederation of All-Armenian Student Associations (All-ASA).
