Put all your names on this paper.

  5. Please find your team from yesterday March 27 Please turn in your rough drafts and research logs paper clipped together to the Turn In Box. HW: Work on Projects! • Get your rough draft for your PPT slide from the front of the room. • Get a Mini White Board and a white board pen from the front of the room. • Create PPT slide on the Armenian Genocide on the white board.

  6. A. Please set up pg. 72A like this…and title it: History of Armenians in the Ottoman Empire B. C. As we go through the timeline of the Armenian Experience in the Ottoman Empire, record the most important facts about what happened to the Armenians during this time from the mini white boards... D. E. F.

  7. Timeline of the Armenian Genocide A. Armenians had once been fully independent, but eventually were swallowed up by the growing Ottoman Empire.

  8. B. Armenians had a distinct culture, religion, language and set of customs that were different from those of the Turks. Most significantly, Armenians were Christian, while most Turks were Islamic.

  9. C. When Nationalism swept through Europe, many minority groups within the Ottoman Empire began to long for independence. Other nations nearby were created to fit European ideals of ethnic purity, ie Serbia for the Serbians, and so on…

  10. D. Armenians, however, were scattered across the whole Empire and so wished to remain a part of the Ottoman Empire and did not wish to become a separate nation.

  11. E. Armenians did want political power and a way to protect themselves from persecution and so pushed the Turkish government for political reforms. This threatened the Turkish regime, that was maintaining power by uniting Turks as Turks, not as members of a diverse nation.

  12. F. The Turkish government responded to the threat the Armenians posed by deciding to eliminate them. Then the Ottoman Empire could be for Muslim Turks only.

  13. Conditions That Lead to Genocide • Minority group is Dehumanized as “Outsider” or “Other” 2. Racist ideology and propaganda (ie. Extreme Nationalism) • Strong dependence on military and military security • Minority denied political power or protection 5. Government seeks to keep or seize minority’s land 6. Government already weak from war or rebellion 7. No punishment from outside expected

  15. Video on the Armenian Genocide • As you watch the video, fill out the handout on the events of the Armenian Genocide.

  16. The Power of the Bystander Bystanders: people who witness but are not directly affected by the actions of perpetrators, help shape society by their action. Bystanders can exert powerful influences. They can define the meaning of events and move others toward empathy (feeling for others) or indifference (not caring for others). They can promote treating people justly, fairly and well, by speaking out against injustice or wrong doing or they can give their approval to the actions of others by doing nothing. Now, Complete the Bystanders Case Study on the back of your Video Questions…
