| Description: |
In 2015 it will be the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide, and yet genocides are still affecting countless lives and communities. Some massacres have gained worldwide notoriety but many have been swept aside leaving survivors to suffer in silence. LA2DC is a cross country cycling and running relay marathon event to raise awareness of modern day genocides. The Armenian Genocide is one of many that have been ignored on the global scale. Beginning April 24, 2015, on the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide, athletes set out from Los Angeles to kick off the marathon asking that all nations including the United States unite to STOP GENOCIDES BY RECOGNIZING PAST GENOCIDES. |
