On Thursday April 21, Thomas Jefferson School of Law will be hosting a lecture entitled, “Genocide and the Law 101 Years Later.” This event will coincide near the 101st anniversary of the Armenian Genocide in Turkey.

The lecture will feature famed Armenian-American criminal defense attorney Mark Geragos, who had represented several celebrities and was one of the lead lawyers in a pair of groundbreaking federal class-action lawsuits against New York Life Insurance and AXA Corporation for insurance policies issued in the early 20th century during the Armenian Genocide.

This event is organized by the Thomas Jefferson School of Law Armenian Law Student Association.
