On the eve of the April 1st arrival of Genocide Prevention Month,
the Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA) today launched a
nationwide online and print campaign urging concrete action to end
the Darfur genocide and full U.S. recognition of the Armenian Genocide.
Echoing Martin Luther King's famous remarks at the Lincoln Memorial in
August, 1963, the "Fierce Urgency of NOW" campaign urges anti-genocide
activists across the U.S. to visit (www.anca.org/change) to learn
more about the worsening humanitarian situation in Darfur and how
this atrocity fits into the cycle of genocide that started with the
Armenian Genocide of 1915-1923. The website provide simple ways for
citizens to call on President Obama to show "unstinting resolve"
in the effort to stop the Darfur Genocide, by participating in Save
Darfur "add your voice" effort
Activists can also call on the Obama Administration and Congress to
recognize the Armenian Genocide, putting to an end to U.S. complicity
in Turkey's international campaign of genocide denial.
