The Armenian Genocide - Forgotten History

Some nations have come to terms with their past regarding genocide, whether that was a direct government policy or implemented by individuals, such as the United States with the Native Americans, and Hungary, Romania, Germany and Austria with the Holocaust.

However, Turkey was also a major contributor to these dark pages of history, and they have never come to terms let alone admitted that they either actively or even passively assisted in murdering collective groups, such as the Armenians. 

I’m Armenian I appreciate this documentary telling stories of my ancestors horrific suffering of injustice and oppression to unimaginable atrocities in such inhumane suffering. The pain still is very much alive and exists in every Armenian family that lost there parents or grandparents, my grandmother survived by escaping with only 1 child age 9 years old son survived out of 8 children that died as victims of the Armenian massacre. 

As an adult I had learned more of our history as Armenians our elders didn’t want the younger generation to here the horrible suffering of there ancestors and families, as one day when my surviving uncle sheared his story how he and our grandmother escaped as I learned the personal tragedy how both mother and son managed to survive months of suffering to stay alive walking in deserts trying to find food scraps or drink water from anywhere they managed to find, it placed a deep sadness in the core of my heart how much they suffered and yet kept alive. I am grateful that my uncle shared his painful past. I pray for all their souls.
