Throughout history, unthinkable actions have occurred to human
beings due to the malicious power of governments. These governments
have controlled and set policies which relocated, devastated and,
in fact, massacred specifically targeted populations resulting in
genocide. If one delves behind the quantifiable statistics of a
genocide and concentrates on the human element of the tortures and
massacres that occur, a more complete picture may be seen.
Dr. Shahkeh Yaylaian Setian, has written a book entitled "Humanity In
The Midst Of Inhumanity", which not only describes the geo-political
situation of Turkey at the time of the Armenian Genocide (1915). It
additionally includes stories written and submitted, by 16 descendants
of survivors who, after being treated viciously within the atmosphere
of the Genocide were saved by brave Turkish Muslims under threat of
death of themselves and their family by the government for helping
Armenians. She offers a corrective to mitigate the prejudices against
Muslims to uphold and promote their dignity. In exploring the many
facets of the Armenian Genocide, a new understanding can result in
a closer relationship between Armenians and Turkish Muslims.
Dr. Setian is sensitive to injustice and human rights violations. She
is dedicated to help create a just and peaceful world. Dr. Setian
is the daughter of Genocide survivors. A graduate of the University
of Massachusetts, Amherst, She is a former resident of both Indian
Orchard and Wilbraham. She has traveled and researched extensively,
volunteering in post war Nagorno Karabagh (Artsakh), a country that
was recovering from the little known war and attempted ethnic cleansing
by neighboring Azerbaijian, a Turkish cohort, against the citizens of
the Armenian enclave. Dr. Setian has taught at Springfield College ,
Cape Cod Community College and Artsakh State University.
On June 10, 2012, Sunday, at 4:00 p,m., Dr. Setian will sign copies and
present a talk followed by a discussion and question and answer period
about her book, "Humanity in the Midst of Inhumanity"about Muslims who
saved Armenians in the 1915 Genocide and describes the geopolitical
and other issues pertinent to the Genocide and its aftermath at The
Tea Shoppe, 26 Steeple Street, Mashpee Commons, Mashpee, MA.
