Orphans of the Genocide - Vergeen Kalandarian

Excerpted from the documentary, "Orphans of the Genocide," directed by Bared Maronian of Armenoid Productions, this video clip tells the story of Armenian Genocide survivor, Vergeen (Kalandarian) Meghrouni. By the end of WWI over 150,000 Armenian children were left parentless as a direct result of the Armenian Genocide perpetrated by the Turkish leadership of the Ottoman Empire. Near East Relief, commissioned by the U.S. Congress, catered to over 132,000 Armenian orphans alone. "Orphans of the Genocide" includes a feature interview by Maurice Missak Kelechian, whose findings unveiled the secrets of an orphanage in Antoura near Beirut, Lebanon, where 1,000 Armenian Genocide Orphans were being Turkified. Mr. Kelechian's research prompted an article by award winning journalist Robert Fisk of The Independent magazine, also featured in the documentary, as well as testimonials from children of Armenian Genocide orphans.
