1.12 Armenian Genocide
Update: 2021-10-11
Description
The Ottoman Empire joined World War I in 1914. A minority of an ethno-religious community within their borders, a group of revolutionary Armenians, threatened independence, putting at risk the Empire’s ability to defend itself from the Russians. To this day Turkey claims the Ottoman Empire responded proportionately in their national interest, but the truth is that they deployed a massive logistical effort to kill and concentrate over a million Armenians in camps in the Syrian desert in 1915-1916. In 1916 Gramsci wrote a brief article attempting to bring awareness of the horrific event. Today we’re going to discuss the Armenian genocide, and Gramsci’s Article.
