In the age of international awareness and cultural respect, a group called Disney out in an effort to stop a new series from reaching the air, citing the glorification of a “genocidal killer.”

The show in question is the forthcoming Disney Atatürk Series. It’s a historical piece slated for release on October 29, coinciding with the centennial anniversary of the Republic of Turkey. After seeing the trailer, a prominent Armenian-American committee (ANCA), called Disney out for its glorification of “a dictator and genocide killer.”

The ANCA went on to claim that “Half of Turkish Twitter is desperately denying Atatürk was a genocidal killer. The other half is joyfully celebrating that Atatürk was a genocidal killer.”

The claims that Emma Watson is reportedly cast in the film are even more alarming.

The Armenian Genocide refers to the systematic massacre that took place between 1915 and 1923, committed by the Turkey. It occurred both after and during WWI. Effective 2023, 34 countries officially recognize the genocide. Amongst those who acknowledge the genocide are the United States, Germany, France, Brazil, and Canada.
