Memorial Service in Yerevan Honors Armenian Genocide Victims
I first learned about the Armenian Genocide nearly three years ago from an Armenian professor at my university. I mostly felt disturbed—not only by the tragedy, but by the fact that I was 20-years-old at the time and was just now learning about it. How could such an event be omitted from my primary education?

Review: HBO’s You Don’t Know Jack (Kevorkian)

Beige: Know What the Answer is, Chavoor?
I have done stuff to stir the kids up before. Stuff that has made them say, “Mr. Chavoor, you can’t say that.” The first time I did it was in 1986 with 10th graders. I told them it was a just a true false test but the statements were racist stereotypes. True or False: Black [...]
Armenia is Calling Me
When I was an awkward 12-year-old, trying to make friends, fit in and figure out my place in the world, I got plucked from a public school and put into a private Armenian institution for two years. It wasn’t by choice. The school district had a problem with the fact that I lived one street [...]
