Armenian Genocide Museum of America

http://www.armeniangenocidemuseum.org/

Located in Washington, DC, the Armenian Genocide Museum of America (AGMA) will be the premier institution in the United States dedicated to educating American and international audiences about the Armenian Genocide and its continuing consequences. Visitors to the Museum will come to understand the Armenian Genocide as the prototype for modern crimes against humanity, including the Holocaust, Cambodia, Rwanda, and Darfur.

The Museum is strategically located two blocks from the White House, walking distance from the Smithsonian Institution, and down the street from the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum — to ensure that Armenian-American issues and concerns, past and present, are never again ignored.

This place of gathering — this center for Americans and Armenians alike — will be a World-Class Museum among World-Class Institutions committed to bringing justice to the memory of the victims of the 20th century's first genocide. AGMA aspires to do so by also highlighting the historic identity of the Armenian people, their culture and creativity, their art and artistry, and their perseverance in the face of adversity.

Visitors will learn about the ultimate failure of the international community to hold the perpetrators accountable for their crimes and hence why a living monument to the quest for justice is vitally necessary, and why the story of the Armenians and all other peoples who have suffered similar fates must be told.

Powerful presentations are instrumental for prompting action and discussion. AGMA interactive exhibits and educational programs will incorporate the latest scholarship with state-of-the-art technology. An online version will offer much the same resonant content to visitors anywhere in the world. Exhibits will focus on the Armenian Genocide to reinforce the universal message of our common humanity and collective responsibility.

The Armenian Genocide Museum of America will offer a place for reflection, where memories and emotions can be confronted in an environment filled with hope, inspiration and a commitment to eradicating the scourge of genocide and stopping other atrocities against humankind.

AGMA is slated for opening before 2011. The historically-designated former National Bank of Washington building in which AGMA will be housed is located at the intersection of 14th and G Streets, NW, Washington, DC 20005. The current plans for the facility call for a 50,000 square foot complex with room to expand in the future.

@zzeynepp18 Keep screaming "your truth in capitals" as we live in a free world. In the meanwhile let me remind you the the only nation that needs re-education are Turks. Before 1915 Armenians consisted 10% of population in Ottoman empire why they are 0.001% today? Who ate whose babies? The world is not dump and is able to do this simple math. Now leave the Armenian videos alone. You are not welcome here.

@amelli5555

no, the world doesnt know who the Turks were/are, as long as they believe in armenian lies I will keep screaming the truth in capitals.Because they really need re-education to learn the truth.I am not inventing any lies, i am sharing the information what my own grandparents withnessed with their own eyes. It is armenian who are good at inventing lies.Your animal ancestors ate innocent babies just for fun.This is what armenians are.

[amelli5555]

@zzeynepp18 Typing in capitals is considered to be yelling. Please, do not yell no one is deaf here. Armenians did not eat Turkish babies. Do not invent ridiculous lies to cover up your ancestors' crime. The world knows who were Turks no need to re-educate the world.

[livingdream1234]

@zzeynepp18 Why you write in capitals, so that we see it. The more Armenians see these kind of posts by turks the more we know your persistance to deny the genocide. You are a turk whose ancestors came to take our lands and what you claim is an excuse to harm us more. Wha are you trying to hide? You turks think just because 90+ years from WWI gives you advantage to hide the truth. Is that because there are many mass graves in turkey which your government hided from the world until recently?

[zzeynepp18]

ARMENIANS KILLED AND ATE LITTLE TURKISH CHILDREN!

AND NOW THEY ARE PLAYING THE VICTIM AND ALL CRISTIAN SO CALLED CIVILICIZED COUNTRIES BELIEVE IN THEM WITHOUT ANY SCIENTIFIC PROOF!

THEY CANT EVEN SHOW WHERE ARE THESE 1.5MILLION SO CALLED BODIES!

THEY DONT OPEN THEIR ARCHIVES!

HISTORIANS AND SCIENTISTS BELIEVE TURKS BUT PARLIAMENTS BELIEVE IN THEM.

IF THIS IS CIVILISATION I AM PROUDFULLY BARBAR!

ARMENIA WILL PAY ALL TURKISH BABIES THEY ATE!
