Petition for the Formal Recognition in the State of Florida of the Greek Genocide of 1914-1923

The Greek Genocide refers to the systematic extermination of the native Greek subjects of the Ottoman Empire before, during and after World War I (1914-1923). It was instigated by successive governments of the Ottoman Empire; the Committee of Union and Progress Party (C.U.P), and the Turkish Nationalist Movement of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk.  It included massacres, forced deportations and death marches, summary expulsions, boycotts, rape, forced conversion to Islam, conscription into labor battalions, arbitrary executions, and destruction of Christian Orthodox cultural, historical and religious monuments. According to various sources, approximately 1 million Greeks perished during this period.

While in 2005, the Florida Senate passed a resolution commemorating the Pontian Greek Genocide of 325,000 Pontian Greeks, this recognition omits the 1.2 million Greeks killed or deported across the regions of Greece. We petition for the passing of a Florida Senate Resolution commemorating the entirety of the Greek Genocide and the 1.2 million Greeks slaughtered or deported from 1914-1923.
