Author will sign book on Armenian genocide
The Detroit News
SOUTHFIELD -- Taner Akcam, a University of Minnesota historian, will
sign copies of his book, "A Shameful Act: The Armenian Genocide and
the Question of Turkish Responsibility," at 7:30 p.m. Saturday at the
Manoogian School, 22001 Northwestern Highway in Southfield.
Akcam has attracted attention because he is one of the first Turkish
intellectuals to devote his career to studying the Armenian Genocide,
the Ottoman Empire's systematic slaughter of more than 1 million
Armenians from 1915-1923. The modern Turkish government still
officially denies such a slaughter ever took place.
