What factors contribute to such prejudice and how? (e.g., television, parental attitudes).
Factors that really effect the thought of many individuals usually comes from the media and those whom you are around. Parents should be the greatest impact on an individual, parents are your guideline to success and help you with what ever you need. However, media such as television or music can effect too, by showing an individual how different everything is and giving new options. Media and parents always make us think that what they say is alright and that we should follow along.
Discuss Adolf Hitler's reported statement, "Who still tells nowadays of the extermination of the Armenians?" Does this statement have any validity today?
Hitler uses the Armenian genocide as a perfect example of how the Turks exterminated nearly all of the Armenian race and that no one knows of it, and still do not today. Hitler thought that the same would happen with the Jewish people, but his mistake was killing in extremely large numbers, around a million and a half Armenians have been massacred due to the genocide, but for the Armenian population, those are extremely large numbers. It is a shame that more than half the world most likely does not know what and Armenian is.
