Never Forget - Armenian Genocide Series by

In 1915 many Armenians were murdered in what is called “The Armenian Genocide”. Many countries, including ours does not recognize that day as a genocide for political reasons. On this day, there are marches around the world!

I have captured the march here in Hollywood, Ca where many Armenians reside.

I am not up for political debate, SO DO NOT COMMENT if you are looking for one.

This is a personal day for me. I am Armenian and Assyrian so I am sharing my personal images with you all.

Thank you

    I’ve seen the photojournalist in your before and it is something I admire, excellent image and write-up. Do you belong to ImageWriting, another group I co-host? This would go very well in that group.

  • I really appreciate your support, truly. It means a lot and inspires me to keep doing what I do!

    I will join that group! Thanks

    It is great that you are keeping this subject in peoples minds!!!!

  • Thank you so much, appreciate it. People sometimes need a reminder, especially for this where it is not only forgotten, but not even acknowledged by some. That makes it harder.
