Armenian author, scholar and philosophy professor, Dr. Michael
Papazian speaks on "The Enduring Legacy of Armenian Genocide." Nine
decades later the hostility remains and Dr. Papazian says now is
the time for Turks and Armenians to reconcile. "The excessive and
destructive nationalism found both among Armenians and Turks has
severely distorted and corrupted their souls and it has inflicted
damage upon their cultures and civilizations." To overcome ghosts of
the past, Papazian says Armenia and Turkey must transform nationalism
into a moderate and noble form of patriotism.
