Names Carved in Stone: The Story of the Armenian Genocide For Teens (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781257980543)

For too long, the story of the Armenian Genocide has been overlooked, silenced, or denied. This book brings it into sharp focus for a new generation, telling the truth with honesty and compassion for those who lived through one of the twentieth century's first great atrocities. Through vivid narratives and powerful testimonies, readers will come to understand what happened to the Armenian people as they were uprooted from their homes, forced onto death marches, and scattered across the world. Teens will meet survivors who found ways to endure unimaginable hardship, and descendants who keep their memory alive through culture, activism, and storytelling. This book doesn't just recount the events of 1915-1916-it explores why they happened, how they've shaped the Armenian identity, and why remembering them matters even now. Readers will learn about the roles of nationalism, denial, and silence, and how these forces continue to affect human rights struggles today. For teens who care about justice and truth, this is more than a history lesson. It's a call to empathy, awareness, and action-a reminder that speaking up matters, that memory is powerful, and that no people should ever face such destruction in silence.
