March For Humanity Begins in Fresno
April 2, 2005 – A group of young people are marching to the state capitol
with the goal of raising awareness about the Armenian genocide.
They began their 19-day journey in Fresno on Saturday.
Along the way, they’ll distribute fliers about the deaths of 1.5 million
Armenians, who died at the hands of the Turkish government.
They’ll wrap up the march with a rally at the state capitol, to thank
California lawmakers for officially recognizing the genocide.
The Turkish government still denies it ever happened.
