COLLAPSE OF TURKEY'S GENOCIDE DENIAL TOPIC AT ANCA-WR TOWN HALL
GLENDALE, CA - French Senate passage of an anti-genocide denial
measure and U.S. House adoption of a resolution urging Turkey to
return Christian churches will be the topics discussed at a special
Town Hall meeting this Sunday January 29th at 1:00 PM, hosted by the
Armenian National Committee of America Western Region (ANCA-WR) at St.
Mary's Church Hall, in Glendale CA.
The event will spotlight two recent victories in the international
campaign to secure justice for the Armenian Genocide, including recent
Congressional adoption of a measure calling on Turkey to return stolen
church properties to their rightful owners, and this week's French
Senate vote to criminalize genocide denial.
Speaking at the event will be Harut Sassounian, publisher of the
California Courier newspaper and dedicated advocate of the Armenian
Cause. Joining him will be William Bairamian, executive director of
the ANCA-WR. Other guest speakers will also address the audience.
Admission is free but because of the limited capacity of the hall,
attendees are encouraged to arrive early since entry to the event will
be on a first-come, first-served basis.
For questions, the ANCA-WR may be contacted at 818-500-1918.
The Armenian National Committee of America-Western Region is the
largest and most influential Armenian American grassroots advocacy
organization in the Western United States. Working in coordination
with a network of offices, chapters, and supporters throughout the
Western United States and affiliated organizations around the country,
the ANCA-WR advances the concerns of the Armenian American community
on a broad range of issues.
