'The Kurdish And Armenian Genocides: From Censorship And Denial To Recognition?
Writer Desmond Fernandes will be discussing some of the issues contained within his latest book.
This book examines the manner in which Armenian genocide denialism is questionably promoted by the governments of Turkey, the US, UK and Israel, as well as by various lobbies in Israel, the US and Turkey. It also confronts an issue that has been largely ignored by the British and US mainstream media and by mainstream British/US academic and political circles – that of the "Kurdish genocide in Turkey". The problem of censorship is also charted. Published by Apec Press (Stockholm) 2008.
