We invite members of the community to join with us for the first in a series of programs exploring various aspects of Armenian-American identities, Exploring Hybrid Identities of Armenian-Americans in Mass, which is supported by Mass Humanities under their Expand Massachusetts Stories Initiative.
Join us for NAASR's Mardigian Library Open House with special presentations and tours by Library Curator Ani Babaian and Director of Academic Affairs Marc Mamigonian.
Join us on for an online panel discussion, "The Fall of Artsakh: Refugee Crisis, Existential Threat, and Uncertain Future," with a distinguished panel including Vicken Cheterian, Bedross Der Matossian, Nerses Kopalyan, Anna Ohanyan, and David L. Phillips, moderated by Marc A. Mamigonian.
In this program, there will be an overview of the book Denial of Genocides in the Twenty-First Century, which encompasses cases ranging from the genocide of Indigenous People in the United States to the genocidal violence in Syria in the past decade, including three chapters on denial of the Armenian Genocide; and the conversation will also consider the key role of denial in the current crisis in Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabagh), which is increasingly being recognized as a genocide in progress.
