    Use Social Media March 9 to April 24 to Boycott Turkey's Coalition of
    Deniers


    Part of the Armenian community's Centennial efforts includes
    boycotting Turkey's coalition of lobbyists denying genocide. The
    Armenian Genocide Centennial Committee has chosen Monday, March 9 as a
    day to hit social media with images, tweets, statuses, and hashtags to
    call attention to the injustices that exist in companies and
    organizations in the U.S. that are funded and/or supported by
    Turkey. Greenberg Traurig, Dickstein Shapiro, Alpaytac PR, Lydia
    Borland, and Gephardt Public Affairs are the main groups being
    targeted in this effort.

    On **March 9 at 3 PM ET/12 PM PT**, the AYF is asking all of our
    supporters to take part in a social media campaign using the hashtag
    **#NeverForget1915** and others that will be shared on Facebook,
    Twitter, and Instagram. Below you'll find examples of tweets and
    statuses for you to use, though we encourage you to create your own
    original content that always incorporates **#NeverForget1915** with it
    (and **#TurkeyFailed**, if possible).

    Shareable photo sized for Instagram and Facebook and to set as your

    We are asking all supporters of Armenian Genocide justice to help in
    this endeavor. The goal is to have these targeted groups drop ties
    with the Turkish lobby and realize they were backed by genocide
    perpetrators and deniers.

    There will also be physical protests on **Thursday, March 12** in five
    major cities-**New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Boston, and Washington,
    D.C.** More information on these protests will be coming this week,
    but if you have interest in physically protesting for this cause,
    please reach out to **[email protected]** ( mailto:[email protected] ).
