Actor Dean Cain Joins 90th Anniversary March for American Mass
Killings

(Los Angeles-AP, April 25, 2005) – Actor Dean Cain joined hundreds of
Armenian-Americans marching in the streets of Hollywood to mark the
90th anniversary of the mass killings of Armenians by Turks.

Wearing black T-shirts emblazoned with the words “We’ve Had Enough,”
and hoisting signs saying “Truth Always Prevails,” the crowd marched
down Hollywood Boulevard in Little Armenia while leaders released
doves into the sky.

Many expressed their desire to have the killings recognized by Turkey
and the rest of the world as a genocide.

“People were talking about losing two-thirds of their family, or
their entire extended family,” Cain said Sunday. “So it’s really
inspired me to learn a lot more about it.”

The Armenian government says up to 1.5 million Armenians ultimately
died or were killed over several years as part of a campaign to force
them out of Turkey. Turkey does not deny that many Armenians died,
but says that most were part of the general unrest during the
collapse of the Ottoman Empire.

Hundreds of thousands marked the anniversary in Armenia at the
nation’s massive stone memorial, and the country observed a moment of
silence.
