An Interview with Michael Bobelian
Author Michael Bobelian’s first book, Children of Armenia: A Forgotten Genocide and the Century-Long Struggle for Justice, focusing on the aftermath of the Armenian Genocide, was recently published by Simon & Schuster.
Bobelian sat down with Taleen Babayan at the Krikor and Clara Zohrab Information Center in New York to discuss Children of Armenia, which explores how the Armenian Genocide entered and quickly faded from public consciousness. Among the questions Bobelian raises are: Why did the United States government cease support for genocide recognition? And why did Armenian Americans initially permit this shift in U.S. foreign policy?

I had the opportunity to listento Mr.Bobelian at the NAASR sponsored event this past Thursday.
The topic is fascinating and his approach is quite interesting. His comments were articulate and really engaged his audience(a packed room).I would also like to that the book is a “good read” and
reviews a very important subject in the post-Genocide Armenian-American experience.
