Took a history course from one of the preeminent scholars of that region and goddamn was it heartbreaking. That Wiki list excludes plenty of pogroms by the Turks against Armenians.

Never had a class like it. Math and econ profs don't take class breaks because the subject matter hits students so hard they openly sob mid-lecture.

I remember following a couple guys to the bathroom just to hug them as they cried and talked of the murders and rapes of their families by Turks, and for the sin of being born.
