Beyond Motherhood – Armenian Women Who Inspire Us

In honor of Mother’s Day, the Armenian National Committee of America Eastern Region (ANCA-ER) compiled this list of 36 Armenian women who inspire and empower us in our daily lives – in Hai Tahd, at home and at work. 

While some in this collage are mothers and some are not, they have all made history and have earned the title as the first of many. 

This inaugural piece of an upcoming series captures the breadth and scope of the powerful Armenian women who came before us and those who continue to lead the way. 

In the weeks to come, we will be spotlighting these women, their lives, their struggles and their successes. We invite you to join us as we take you through this journey…a true labor of love.

The Armenian Weekly

Since 1899, Armenian Weekly's Armenian-language predecessor, the Hairenik, has reported, analyzed, and commented on the historic events of modern Armenian history, often in their staggering proportion, making it the longest-running Armenian-language newspaper in the world. As the first waves of American-born, English-speaking generations grew older, the need for a more mature publication in English was eventually filled by the Armenian Weekly. Today, along with news of general interest to the Armenian-American community, our newspaper publishes editorials, political analyses, a rich array of opinion pieces and columns, as well as literary criticism and reviews. While providing a platform for the Armenian Revolutionary Federation and the Armenian National Committee of America, the newspaper also functions as a space where a wide variety of views and opinions can be discussed openly and honestly.
