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

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.
