Thousands across California will gather at the Turkish Consulate in
Los Angeles on Saturday, April 24, at 4pm to demonstrate for an end to
Turkey’s 95 year campaign of genocide denial and the recognition of
the Armenian Genocide by the United States.

Organized by the Armenian Youth Federation, this year’s protest will
come on the 95th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide and will
converge with global expectations on both the U.S. House of
Representatives and President Barack Obama to finally hold Turkey
accountable for its crimes against the Armenian people.

Armenian Americans will protest against Turkey’s effort to impose a
gag-rule on the United States and show once again the resolve of the
Armenian people in their struggle for justice, recognition and
reparations.
