The Kardashian sisters are planning a trip to their ancestral home
in Armenia. Kim Kardashian, who has always been spreading awareness
about the Armenian Genocide, will make her trip to Armenia with
her baby North West. It is not sure if her husband Kanye West will
accompany them or not but Khloe Kardashian and Kourtney Kardashian
will accompany Kim to the land of their late father Robert Kardashian,
various websites are suggesting. Kourtney will reportedly take her
three kids Penelope, Mason and Reign too on the upcoming trip, E Online
is saying. Robert Kardashian, the father of the Kardashian sisters,
was born to parents who were Armenian and American. According to the
website, Robert's great-grandparents were ethnic Armenian immigrants
from a part of Turkey that came under the Russian Empire back then. The
Russian Empire, however, was destroyed in 1917.
The Kardashian sisters will be joined by their cousins in Armenia. The
family is very excited to learn about their roots. "Visiting Armenia
has been on Kim's bucket list forever. They are all so excited! They
want to learn about their heritage," an insider source is quoted
as saying by E Online. Kim is quite proud of her Armenian roots and
has also been spreading awareness about the Armenian Genocide. Her
efforts were recently applauded by band System of a Down. "For all
the flak people give Kim Kardashian, I could say that with her yearly
commemorations of the Armenian genocide and spreading that word,
she's been valuable. She's been great," System of a Down frontman
Serj Tankian is quoted as saying by Rolling Stone magazine.
In March 2014, the 34-year-old reality television star also tweeted
her thoughts about the then ongoing civil war in Kessab town of Syria.
Kim said that everyone should put in efforts to make "#SaveKessab
#ArmenianGenocide" trending on social media as the history of genocide
should not "repeat itself." She pleaded with her fans to google about
the plight of people in Kessab as it is "very heartbreaking." Kim also
told her fans that she grew up listening to "so many painful stories"
about Armenia.
