    Warning signs: One of the exhibits at Yerevan's Genocide Museum at the Tsitsernakaberd complex is a collection of books in Russian and English published in the late 19th century when attacks against Armenian communities in the Ottoman Empire were just beginning.

    Adelina Avakyan has lived in Moscow for 25 years and came to stay with her family in Yerevan for the commemoration events. For her, visiting the Genocide Museum was painful but necessary.
     
    “I have tears in my eyes. There are so many emotions that it is impossible to explain. Even knowing the history, seeing the pictures brings this powerful trauma.”

    Diana Gasparyan, a third year university student and a translator,
    was one of the volunteers helping visitors in Yerevan during the Centennial events. 


    “It's a painful topic for every Armenian.
    I wish everyone could relive the pain that we are reliving right now and recognize the Genocide. I was a volunteer, handing out flowers to visitors to Yerevan, and maybe it's very little, but it means something that I am part of it, reliving this pain together with my nation. I want the Genocide to be accepted. We are a little part of history, and you can't just brush away that page of world history.”

    On April 26 activists from the Foundation for the Preservation of Wilidlife and Cultural Assets (FPWC) will gather the flowers laid by the mourners at the Tsitsernakaberd Memorial Complex. The stems will then be turned into fertilizers, whereas the recycled paper made from the petals will be used for letters of gratitude and invitations to the Armenian Genocide Museum-Institute.

    Irina Pogosian teaches Russian literature at Brusov University and spoke to us from downtown Yerevan of reliving the pain during the commemoration events.

     
    “For me personally, these two days were extremely difficult. Because it is the Centennial, there were more events than usual. Being Armenian, even though my family was not affected by the Genocide, it is very painful. Just looking at the films being shown on television, I could not stop crying. I could not leave the house. Those families who survived continued to raise their children with this legacy. It is not lost. The stories are passed down, relayed among family and friends. That is why even one hundred years later it remains traumatic for the Armenian people and these atrocities cannot be forgotten. Everyone knows at least one Armenian who was affected by this, whose family lost their home and their lives.”
