    interviw our survivors

    Dear Thread,
    I saw your posting (which read: "interview our survivors, before it is too late")
    We (german print press and french/german television) would like to do that.
    R there any survivors left? How do we find them.
    We have just started research on what should, in the end, become the aforementioned series of articles and television programs in germany and france, but the only survivor(s) we found so far are my grandmother and a
    ( just one) french armenian (man).
    Would u know of any other ("interviewable") survivors (of the 1915-&onwards genocide)
    best regards

      Good film, but too small, and undetailed. Only five minutes. I wish it is more long time. Who is Armin Wegner in the film. I can't understand well. Was he a soldier of German Army, or photographer, or both? Sorry. My english isn't good.

        Ben,
        welcome to the forum, Armin Wegner is both. He was a German Army Medic who secretly photographed the Genocide and many of it's victims. You can learn more about it by going to:

            I guess that Zoryan Institute will be able to help you to contact the few alive survivers of the Armenian Genocide, who live in America and Canada. For the survivors who live in Armenia Armenia Now might be able to help you contact them... As for survivors in Lebanon and Syria, who's the only left in the Middle East Area you may want to contact the AGBU, or AFP or ADL in Lebanon and Syria, they might be of help to you....

            Good luck ...

                  Yeah and we are just imagining your sorry ass here....but perhaps that won't be for long...

                  Look dumbF - there will come a day where you will look really stupid and silly (actually you already do) - but what will be clear to all is that you are no better then some neo-nazi who denies the Holocaust - just another ignorant racist scum...and what will really be funny is when you figure out for yourself (OK once your Government admits the Genocide and tells you what to believe now...) - is how you will feel about how fooled and how stupid you have been all this time...perhaps then we will take your apology...but not before laughing at you some more and calling you stupid again...

                    Armenian Genocide Documentary to be Honored
                    at 2006 Midwest Journalism Conference in April

                    The Armenian Genocide: 90 Years Later, a 2005 Regional Emmy nominee,
                    will be honored at the 2006 Midwest Journalism Conference in
                    Bloomington, Minnesota, on Saturday, April 1.

                    ABC News chief investigative journalist Brian Ross, who reports
                    extensively for 20/20, Primetime, Nightline, World News Tonight, and
                    Good Morning America, will be the Keynote speaker.

                    The event is sponsored by the Northwest Broadcast News Association in
                    memory of journalist Eric Sevareid. The Armenian Genocide: 90 Years
                    Later was one of two winners in the Talk and Public Affairs category.

                    The Midwest Journalism Conference is jointly sponsored by the
                    Associated Press, Association of Electronic Journalists, Minnesota
                    Journalism Center, National Press Photographers Association, National
                    Television Academy, Northwest Broadcast News Association, Society of
                    Professional Journalists, and the University of Minnesota School of
                    Journalism and Mass Communication.

                    The documentary is a co-production of Twin Cities Public Television
                    and the University of Minnesota Center for Holocaust and Genocide
                    Studies, (CHGS) and is distributed by the Armenian Genocide Resource
                    Center in Richmond California through a special arrangement with CHGS.

                    The Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies in Minnesota has been at
                    the forefront of education on the Armenian Genocide for many years.
                    It was established within the College of Liberal Arts as an
                    Independent Center with its main administrative relationship with the
                    Department of History. CHGS is also affiliated with The Institute for
                    Global Studies, The Humanities Institute, Department of German, Dutch
                    and Scandinavian Languages, The Human Rights Program at the University
                    of Minnesota School of Law and The Center for European Studies.

                    It's director Dr Stephen Feinstein has been at the helm of the Center
                    since its creation in1997 and has expanded its website to include
                    eyewitness survivor testimonies, documents, teaching guides, online
                    streaming video and audio and other materials on the Armenian
                    Genocide, some of which were provided to the Center over the years by
                    the Armenian Genocide Resource Center (AGRC), including an expanded
                    reference guide for teachers and students which is currently on the
                    web site.

                    The Armenian Genocide: 90 Years Later is part of an ongoing series by
                    CHGS about genocide and its lingering effects and was aired on public
                    television in Minnesota last April and was nominated for the 2005
                    Regional EMMY® in the category of `Best News Special.'

                    The documentary discusses events that led to the genocide, issues
                    related to genocide recognition, how that affects Turkish democracy,
                    and how the question of how historical writing takes place when a
                    regime decrees an official history about certain issues in its society
                    and brings criminal prosecution against scholars, writers and others
                    who attempt to bring truths about the past into the present.

                    The program discusses this phenomenon and raises questions about how
                    the issue of the recognition of the Armenian Genocide fits into the
                    context of understanding the current status of Turkish democracy,
                    academic freedom in universities and issues involving language and
                    identity for minorities. Most poignant in the program is the
                    testimony related by those whose family members survived the genocide
                    and lived to tell about it. Many remember their parents telling of the
                    horrors and of leaving their homes and hiding from Turkish gendarmes,
                    and they discuss how remembrance of the events of1915 is now embedded
                    in Armenian identity.

                    Program discussants include Taner Akçam, Stephen Feinstein, and Eric
                    Weitz, from the University of Minnesota, as well as descendants of
                    survivors, and members of the community who explore issues related to
                    the genocide. The educational program would greatly benefit students,
                    teachers and the general public alike. The DVD is available from
                    AGRC. For information on how to obtain a copy please send SASE to
                    AGRC, 5400 McBryde Avenue, Richmond, CA 94805 or call the number
                    above.
