Friday, April 3, 2009
Every year, the date April 24 symbolizes the premeditated Genocide
perpetrated by Turkey against Armenians.
As a consequence of the Genocide, not only did 1.5 million innocent
Armenians lose their lives, but an incalculable economic and cultural
legacy was lost as well. Most importantly, however, a large area
of our millennia-old fatherland was usurped by the Turks. Today, 94
years after the beginning of the Armenian Genocide, Western Armenia
continues to remain under Turkish occupation.
The Armenian nation will never cease its pursuit of justice. We are
the masters of our demands and our destiny.
April 24th symbolizes the day marking the Armenian nation's rightful
demands.
As in previous years, this year on April 24th we will remember our
martyrs, and make our voices heard via political demonstrations and
commemorative observances. From Yerevan to Tehran, Beirut to Buenos
Aires, and Paris to Stepanakert, the Armenian people will unite and
remind the world that justice has yet to be served.
In Southern California, on Friday, April 24, 2009 a political rally
and commemorative observance will be held at the Armenian Martyrs
Memorial Monument in Montebello beginning at 11:00 am. Details of
this event will be publicized in the near future.
We appeal to every Armenian family and each individual Armenian
to participate in the commemorative observance in Montebello and
collectively proclaim our just demands upon the world.
