In 1985, Armenian Genocide survivor, Levonti Azadian shared her family’s story in the company of her young grandson.
“I turned 9 years old. What could I do? The people were dying and there was no one to bury them.”
March is Women’s History Month in the United States.
USC Shoah Foundation’s Armenian Genocide testimony collection includes several categories of individuals linked directly or indirectly to the calamity. The vast majority are Armenian Genocide survivors, while others are Armenian descendants (second and third generation), scholars, rescuers and aid providers, foreign witnesses, Yezidi survivors, and Arab and Greek eyewitnesses. The interviews were recorded in 10 languages in 13 countries.

My grandfather was Greek and fought in WW1. He wasn’t a fan of the Turks.

[@turkishmauser1174]

Which army did he serve in ?

[@earthwater3432]

The Ottoman Government is guilty for These massacres. It cannot be the fault of Turkiye.
