the obligatory school hours dedicated to the Holocaust and Armenian
Genocide in the school program.
Among other things Boyle stated: "It is crucial our young people have
an understanding of the implications of the Holocaust and recognize
genocide for what it is - the mass murdering of a national, ethnic,
racial, or religious group - so that history never repeats itself.
Currently five states have enacted laws requiring the teaching of
the Holocaust in schools: California, Florida, Illinois, New Jersey,
and New York."
