Armenians Reflect On Genocide Memorial Day

On April 24, groups will gather in town squares and city parks around the world to commemorate this first genocide of the 20th century, when more than a million Armenians were killed as the Ottoman Turk government purged the population.

But in lonely Vakifli, the day will pass without ceremony. No candles will be lit, no speeches read.
