This is my great grandfather’s poem!
Here is my article on Garabed Artinian who survived the Adana Massacres of 1909, lost his family, and wrote the lengthiest lamentation poem (destan) in Armeno-Turkish. I analyze the destan, discuss its historical value, and provide a translation. LINK: https://t.co/E2hGa8F1hR

Breathtaking.
This must be the most unbelievable opinion piece in the past 50 years. So the international rules are only for one sort of people (Untermenschen) while superior races must be exempt from it. It should be framed and displayed!

If that was the reason, why wasn't Ta-Nehisi Coates Zoomed in for his much anticipated keynote?
As announced at the #NCSS2024 President's Welcome this morning, Ta-Nehisi Coates will no longer be speaking today due to exposure to COVID-19. NCSS has extended an invitation to Mr. Coates to share his voice with us at a future event. We encourage attendees to spend time in the
