The Anti-Defamation League reinstated Andrew Tarsy as its New England
regional director, Monday. Tarsy was fired August 17, after publicly
voicing opposition to the organization’s refusal to recognize the
Armenian genocide.
Abraham Foxman later reversed the organization’s position by
recognizing the World War I massacre of Armenians as genocide for the
first time. Following this reversal, the New England regional chapter
voted to bring back Tarsy as director and to support a resolution
before Congress that would officially recognize the genocide, despite
Foxman’s continued opposition to such a bill.
