    Petition urges Google to set Armenian Genocide doodle on April 24

    16:11, 07 Dec 2014

    Petition launched on Change.org urges Google to set an Armenian
    Genocide doodle on April 24. A Google Doodle is a special, temporary
    alteration of the logo on Google's homepage. The text of the petition
    reads:

    "The Armenian Genocide was the Ottoman government's systematic
    extermination of its minority Armenian subjects from their historic
    homeland within the territory constituting the present-day Republic of
    Turkey.

    The starting date is conventionally held to be 24 April 1915, the day
    Ottoman authorities rounded up and arrested some 250 Armenian
    intellectuals and community leaders in Constantinople. The total
    number of people killed as a result has been estimated at between 1
    and 1.5 million.

    This is why we have the responsibility of spreading awareness about
    the genocide, and why Google should get involved for all humanity."
