Excited to join a panel at @unlv on April 15, 2026, with Catherine Clark @USC. We’ll discuss the Armenian Genocide & the Holocaust—their origins, memory, denial, and lessons for human rights.

Dear All,
Here is a short interview with Kentron TV on @NikolPashinyan's firing of Dr. Edita Gzoyan, the director of the Armenian Genocide Museum & Institute. The move violates all the academic principles. @unlcas @UNLincoln @UNLHistory

New book in my series with @ibtauris : Armenian Refugees in French Mandate Syria by Victoria Abrahamyan, published by I. B. Tauris (@BloomsburyBooks ).

A powerful study of statelessness, nation-building & Armenian refugee agency in interwar Syria.
