By the end of the First World War, the number of Armenians in what would become Turkey had been reduced by 90 percent―more than a million people. A century later, the Armenian Genocide remains controversial but relatively unknown, overshadowed by later slaughters and the chasm separating Turkish and Armenian interpretations of events.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px;" data-mce-style="margin: 0px;"><br></p><p style="margin: 0px;" data-mce-style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;" data-mce-style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Professor Ronald Suny, noted Scholar of European Studies from the University of Michigan, will give us an account of when, how, and why the atrocities of 1915–16 occurred. He will speak to us virtually during a program to commemorate the anniversary date of the martyrs of persecution and genocide. This is an unforgettable chronicle of events that set a tragic pattern for a century of genocide and crimes against humanity.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px; line-height: 15.6933px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: 'calibri' , sans-serif;" data-mce-style="margin: 0px; line-height: 15.6933px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: 'calibri' , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;" data-mce-style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><br></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px; line-height: 15.6933px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: 'calibri' , sans-serif;" data-mce-style="margin: 0px; line-height: 15.6933px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: 'calibri' , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;" data-mce-style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">For more information or to register, call the Northville District Library at 248-349-3020, or visit <a data-mce-href="https://bit.ly/3rL3vfB" href="https://bit.ly/3rL3vfB">https://bit.ly/3rL3vfB</a><span class="Object" id="OBJ_PREFIX_DWT1247_com_zimbra_url" style="color: #005a95; text-decoration: none;" data-mce-style="color: #005a95; text-decoration: none;"></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px; line-height: 15.6933px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: 'calibri' , sans-serif;" data-mce-style="margin: 0px; line-height: 15.6933px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: 'calibri' , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;" data-mce-style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span></p></div><br><div><pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; overflow-wrap: !important;" data-mce-style="white-space: pre-wrap; overflow-wrap: !important;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;" data-mce-style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">_________________________________</span></pre><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div style="color: #000000; font-family: 'segoe ui' , 'lucida sans' , sans-serif; font-size: 14.16px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;" data-mce-style="color: #000000; font-family: 'segoe ui' , 'lucida sans' , sans-serif; font-size: 14.16px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: 'calibri' , sans-serif; background: #fafafa;" data-mce-style="margin: 0px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: 'calibri' , sans-serif; background: #fafafa;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 11pt; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" data-mce-style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000; font-size: 11pt; background-color: #ffffff;">Stacy Van Vlerah, Public Relations</span></p></div><div style="color: #000000; font-family: 'segoe ui' , 'lucida sans' , sans-serif; font-size: 14.16px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;" data-mce-style="color: #000000; font-family: 'segoe ui' , 'lucida sans' , sans-serif; font-size: 14.16px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: 'calibri' , sans-serif; background: #fafafa;" data-mce-style="margin: 0px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: 'calibri' , sans-serif; background: #fafafa;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 11pt; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" data-mce-style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000; font-size: 11pt; background-color: #ffffff;">Northville District Library<br><span class="object" style="color: #005a95; text-decoration: none;" data-mce-style="color: #005a95; text-decoration: none;">212 W.
