Last year’s centennial observance of the Armenian
Genocide affirmed the importance of the memory of the Armenian Genocide as a
unifying and identifying factor for Armenian-Americans across the country. Even
after 100 years, the generation of 1915, and the legacy they passed down,
remain deeply meaningful to our people. As the descendants of survivors, we are inspired by the
spiritual foundation their example provides for future action. Now, a year
after the centennial observance, the Eastern Diocese invites Armenian-Americans
from different walks of life to share their stories of inheritance, pride, and
personal history with other Armenians and with the broader American society.

To this end, the Eastern Diocese is launching the
#MyArmenianLegacy social media campaign. The conversation begins with a simple
question—What is your legacy? What is the legacy you have inherited? How
valuable is it to your daily life? What is the legacy you wish to build and
leave behind?
In the inaugural video of this campaign, well-known
Armenian-Americans discuss how the legacy of the generation of 1915 inspired or
affects them in their professional endeavors. Alongside these voices will be
“Your Stories”: stories submitted by viewers across the country, reflecting on
the themes of legacy, memory, and simple pride in their Armenian heritage.
We invite you to join us in conversation, and help us
spread the word about the #MyArmenianLegacy campaign.
What is YOUR legacy?
