Armenian Genocide
According to the Armenian-American Action Committee (ARAMAC) of the
Armenian Assembly of America, the C-SPAN-2 BookTV Show broadcast
a program dedicated to Michael Bobelian's "Children of Armenia"
on December 19 and 20.
Michael Bobelian, journalist and grandson of an Armenian Genocide
survivor, in his book recalls the displacement of 2 million Armenians,
many of which were killed by the Ottoman government from 1915 to 1923.
The author questions why this historical period has been ignored. He
cites over 100 articles in the New York Times in 1915 recounting the
events as they unfolded, President Woodrow Wilson's calls for aid,
and the current work of Armenian descendants to have the genocide
publicly acknowledged.
"Children of Armenia" was broadcast on C-SPAN-2 BookTV Show three
times: Saturday afternoon, Sunday morning and evening.
This event was hosted by Chaucer's Bookstore in Santa Barbara,
California.
