LOS ANGELES — Los Angeles Supervisor Kathryn Barger and the Board of Supervisors commemorated the 107th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide by proclaiming April 24, 2022 as Armenian Genocide Remembrance Day, in recognition of one of the darkest chapters in human history.
Earlier this month, the Board of Supervisors proclaimed April as “Armenian History Month” in Los Angeles County – home to the largest population of Armenians in the United States.
