DEMONSTRATION IN MEMORY OF HRANT DINK

Dear Friends,

DEMONSTRATION IN MEMORY OF HRANT DINK

Saturday, February 2nd, 9:00 AM Sharp

312 Sutter Street (between Stockton & Kearny Sts.), San Francisco, 94108

In memory of Armenian newspaper editor Hrant Dink, assassinated in Turkey on January 20, 2007, The Bay Area ANC has organized a demonstration at the site of an all-day workshop, "Portrait of Turkey," hosted by the World Affairs Council in San Francisco.

Speakers at the workshop include the Consul General of Turkey, Hakan Tekin, and the Honorary Consul General of Turkey for the Bay Area, Bonnie Joy Kaslan (a plaintiff in the 2004 lawsuit seeking removal of the Mt. Davidson Cross memorial plaque, commemorating the Armenian Genocide.)

HELP US RAISE OUR VOICES LOUDLY to workshop participants, reminding them:

Hrant Dink was silenced forever because he spoke out about the Armenian Genocide;

Many others are being criminally prosecuted for discussing the Armenian Genocide;

Armenians, Kurds, Greeks, other minorities and their cultural properties are under constant threat in Turkey;

Turkey conducts a massive campaign of Armenian Genocide denial, recently spending millions of dollars and using drastic political threats to manipulate the U.S. legislative process to defeat the Armenian Genocide resolution pending in Congress.

Transportation Options:

Parking on Sutter Street is available at the Sutter-Stockton Garage (entrance on Stockton).

It is recommended to take BART or MUNI and get off at the Montgomery Station.

MUNI Buses are also available: Bus lines 38/38L Geary, 30/45 Stockton, and the 2/3/4 Sutter bus lines.

Visit 511.org for schedule and fares.
