About 1.5 million Armenians were killed by the Ottoman Empire from 1915 to 1917, and the world closed its eyes while a nation was being exterminated. The 37 states in the U S have recognized the Armenian genocide, though Turkey continues to deny that it happened, and the U S government refuses to call it a genocide. The commemoration happens on April 24th, since this marks the date of the deportation and murder of Ottoman Armenian intellectuals in 1915.

Guests include:
- Peter Balakian, author of the best-selling book on the Armenian Genocide - Burning Tigris
- David Barsamian, Armenian-American activist, author, and producer of Alternative Radio
- Carla Garapedian, award-winning documentary filmmaker, former anchor of the BBC World News, and producer/director of the new film, Screamers (about the Armenian Genocide)
