The Assembly of Turkish American Associations (ATAA), a
Washington-based group founded in 1979, has prepared a "master plan"
to counteract the Armenian Genocide centennial efforts,
Hurriyet Daily News reports that the Turkish campaign, which will
include "both proactive and reactive responses," will be introduced to
all Turkish groups that will be invited to Washington in September.
"Proactive" measures include the forming of "activist committees" who
will visit lawmakers in each state, conduct social media campaigns,
keep in touch with traditional media outlets, prepare online courses
and organize countrywide networking meetings for Americans.
One part of the initiative consists of the organization of at least 20
"day-long conferences" in partnership with local universities and with
the participation of famous Turkish-Americans like Dr. Mehmet Öz and
Coca-Cola CEO Muhtar Kent.
