Freelance French journalist Jean Eckian appealed to Armenians worldwide
with a request to commemorate Genocide victims by recoding their
names at inhomage.com.

"This contribution is a moral obligation for those who can bring
together by number and name those members of their families who
suffered unspeakable crime against humanity, termed as Genocide by
Raphael Lemkin. To refrain would be to abandon your own identity,
leaving a gaping hole to swallow up the most grievous abuse," he
stressed in his address.

The project is supported by acclaimed singer Charles Aznavour.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
