Great LTTE regarding Pelosi wanting to condemn Aremenian genocide
Genocide resolution

The slaughter of the Armenians by the Ottoman Turks was a terrible thing. The fact that this was done by people who are all dead and by a government that was overthrown almost a hundred years ago does not make it less terrible.

However, many governments still in power have dark periods in their past. I would suggest the present Turkish government draft a resolution condemning the United States for having enslaved large numbers of people, people to whom we are still not granting full equality.

1. Historic farsightedness.
Where is the outrage, dialogue, and action on contemporary issues?
