| The film begins by showing current human rights violations and relates them to
other atrocities throughout history. It shows how small violations may leads to
genocide, i.e. the extermination of a racial, national, ethnic, or religious
group through physical destruction, prevention of births, or forcible transfer
of children. The film explains historical events leading up to the Armenian
Genocide of 1915-1923. Concluding questions generate student discussion and
relate historical events to the present. Produced for the Curriculum Development and Supplemental Materials Commission of the State of California |
