April 15th, 2015
Boston, MA - During the month of April 2015 the billboard on Route
1 South, in Foxboro MA, states that the Armenian Genocide has been
recognized by 43 states in the United States, and asks President
Obama to join them, reminding him of his campaign promise to recognize
the Armenian Genocide. As April 24th, 2015 approaches, the Armenian
communities in the United States, as well as Armenian communities
around the world, await impatiently for President Obama to use the
word "genocide" in his commemoration speech, without distortions
or euphemisms.
Since January 2015 Peace of Art, Inc. launched its genocide awareness
billboard campaign "100 Billboards for 100 Years of Genocide." in
Massachusetts, and expanded the project to other states. This project
is dedicated to the centennial of the Armenian Genocide, and it honors
the victims of all genocides of the last one hundred years.
