Armenians of all ages and from all backgrounds gathered together in cities throughout the world to mark the solemn occasion of remembering the 1.5 million Armenians who were killed in the Genocide. In Los Angeles those who gathered numbered 160,000 strong. They took part in the March for Justice which wound through major streets in Hollywood ultimately stopping at the Turkish Consulate. Sahag-Mesrob took part in the historic march with over 100 students, parents, and teachers who were bussed to Arshag Dickranian School at 9 o'clock in the morning. Those who represented SMACS at the event marched proudly alongside other local Armenian schools for the six mile walk from Arshag Dickranian School to the Turkish Consulate. Dressed in their purple commemorative T-shirts and waving their Armenian flags and banners, the Sahag-Mesrob delegation made sure their voices were heard. Students like Christine Awakian of fourth grade and Athena Baghdadsarian of fifth grade each donning the tri-color flag, chanted their disappointment that the Turkish government still denies the Armenian Genocide. Others like Michael Sahagian and Alexandra Babayan of second grade rode on their fathers' shoulders and waved their Armenian flags with dignity until they were standing yards away from the Turkish Consulate. Throughout the march, a sense of unity was evident and the support of spectators on the streets, within shops, on construction sites, and even rooftops of high rise buildings made the day all the more memorable. As we move forward and as we always look back at the tragedy of the past, we can say April 24, 2015, is a day to be proud of indeed. - Mrs Aylin The Lion’s Roar Page 3 The Lion’s Roar Page 4 Kindergarten is Proud to Be Armenian By: Isabella and Michael By: Haylee and Nicholas By: Christina and Laurene By: Alina and Natalia By: Stephanie, Lorance, and Sako The Lion’s Roar Page 5 1st Graders Learn About Armenian Artists!

    Wuthering Heights of Shirak -the Land of Steppe and Sky YYerevanerevan 22013013 1 Facts About Shirak FOREWORD Mix up the vast open spaces of the Shirak steppe, the wuthering wind that sweeps through its heights, the snowcapped tops of Mt. Aragats and the dramatic gorges and sparkling lakes of Akhurian River. Sprinkle in the white sheep fl ocks and the cry of an eagle. Add churches, mysterious Urartian ruins, abundant wildlife and unique architecture. Th en top it all off with a turbulent history, Gyumri’s joi de vivre and Gurdjieff ’s mystical teaching, revealing a truly magnifi cent region fi lled with experi- ences to last you a lifetime. However, don’t be deceived that merely seeing all these highlights will give you a complete picture of what Shirak really is. Dig deeper and you’ll be surprised to fi nd that your fondest memories will most likely lie with the locals themselves. You’ll eas- ily be touched by these proud, witt y, and legendarily hospitable people, even if you cannot speak their language. Only when you meet its remarkable people will you understand this land and its powerful energy which emanates from their sculptures, paintings, music and poetry. Visiting the province takes creativity and imagination, as the tourist industry is at best ‘nascent’. A great deal of the current tourist fl ow consists of Diasporan Armenians seeking the opportunity to make personal contributions to their historic homeland, along with a few scatt ered independent travelers. Although there are some rural “rest- places” and picnic areas, they cater mainly to locals who want to unwind with hearty feasts and family chats, thus rarely providing any activities.

Before I start telling you about Sumgayit events, which I firmly believe are of vital importance for Azerbaijan, and in the trial of which I represented the government, about peripeteia of this trial and other happenings which became echoes and continuation of the tragedy in Sumgayit, and finally about inferences I made about all the abovementioned as early as in 1989, I would like to give you some brief background about myself, in order to demonstrate you that I was not involved in the process occasionally and that my conclusions and position regarding the case are well grounded. Thus, after graduating from the Law Faculty of of the Kuban State University of Russia with honours, I was appointed to the Neftekumsk district court of the Stavropol region as an interne. After the lapse of some time I became the assistant for Mr Krasnoperov, the chairman of the court, who used to be the chairman of the Altay region court and was known as a good professional. The existing legislation at that time allowed two people’s assessors to participate in the court trials in the capacity of judges alongside with the actual judge.
