    ARARAT-ESKIJIAN MUSEUM TO PRESENT "ARMENIA'S BREAKING BONE" DOCUMENTARY

    By MassisPost
    Updated: November 7, 2013

    Ararat-Eskijian Museum will present documentary "Armenia's
    Breaking Bone" On Sunday, November 17th, 2013, at 4:00 p.m. at the
    Ararat-Eskijian Museum, Hasmik Mgrdichian Gallery, 15105 Mission
    Hills Road, Mission Hills, CA. The lecture is sponsored by the
    Ararat-Eskijian Museum and Armenian Renaissance Los Angeles Chapter;
    Pan Armenian Environmental Front ( PAEF).

    "The documentary Armenia's Breaking Bone" was created as a public
    initiative to raise awareness and educate the public about the
    unsustainable environmental practices and devastating consequences of
    extensive illegal exploitation of natural resources in Armenia. The
    goal of the Pan Armenian Environmental Front (PAEF) is preservation
    of nature, the sustainable development of economy and ensuring social
    justice in our Homeland.

    Furthermore, Armenia's natural resources are being exploited at
    a very aggressive rate without consideration for environmental and
    human safety. According to the World Bank, the rate of birth defects,
    sterility, respiratory problems, and cancer have increased dramatically
    over the years in Armenia. Loss of forested mountains and contamination
    of natural resources via deliberate dumping of toxic waste has led
    to the growing civil activism in Armenia.

    The documentary is in Armenian subtitled in English followed by Q &
    A discussion by members of PAEF. Email: [email protected] Admission
    is $6.00 reception to follow the program.
