Yom HaShoah, Easter Rising, Armenian Remembrance

This year Yom HaShoah--Holocaust Remembrance Day--falls on April 24th. It's also the 101st anniversary of the Easter Rising, when Irish republicans sought to end British rule in Ireland and establish an independent Irish Republic. It's also Armenian Genocide Remembrance Day, the anniversary of the day the Ottoman persecution and genocide of Armenians began in 1915.
