Details | Join the Center for Holocaust, Human Rights and Genocide Education as they remember the survivors and victims of the Armenian Genocide. Zabel Yessayan was an Armenian author and political activist, and a voice of courage in the early 20th century. She was the only woman on the list of over 200 Armenian writers and intellectuals to be targeted for arrest and deportation on April 24, 1915, now recognized as the official start of the Armenian Genocide. Judith Saryan will speak about Zabel's life and legacy, and more recent efforts to properly memorialize her and her work. Click here to access Chhange's Facebook Live page.
