    COLLAPSE OF TURKEY'S GENOCIDE DENIAL TOPIC AT ANCA-WR TOWN HALL


    GLENDALE, CA - French Senate passage of an anti-genocide denial
    measure and U.S. House adoption of a resolution urging Turkey to
    return Christian churches will be the topics discussed at a special
    Town Hall meeting this Sunday January 29th at 1:00 PM, hosted by the
    Armenian National Committee of America Western Region (ANCA-WR) at St.
    Mary's Church Hall, in Glendale CA.

    The event will spotlight two recent victories in the international
    campaign to secure justice for the Armenian Genocide, including recent
    Congressional adoption of a measure calling on Turkey to return stolen
    church properties to their rightful owners, and this week's French
    Senate vote to criminalize genocide denial.

    Speaking at the event will be Harut Sassounian, publisher of the
    California Courier newspaper and dedicated advocate of the Armenian
    Cause. Joining him will be William Bairamian, executive director of
    the ANCA-WR. Other guest speakers will also address the audience.

    Admission is free but because of the limited capacity of the hall,
    attendees are encouraged to arrive early since entry to the event will
    be on a first-come, first-served basis.

    For questions, the ANCA-WR may be contacted at 818-500-1918.

    The Armenian National Committee of America-Western Region is the
    largest and most influential Armenian American grassroots advocacy
    organization in the Western United States. Working in coordination
    with a network of offices, chapters, and supporters throughout the
    Western United States and affiliated organizations around the country,
    the ANCA-WR advances the concerns of the Armenian American community
    on a broad range of issues.
