I'm not here looking for trouble. I am American, my parents are both born in the US, my grandparents come from Turkey-after the Armenian Genocide, so I'm 2nd generation Armenian-American.
Growing up I lived in a non-Armenian area, just regular Americans, ironically at the age of 12 I made best friends with a girl who was Turkish- American, we ended our friendship but had nothing to do with her being Turkish- we just faded as friends. She even dated my brother.
I have friends who are Turkish as well, they wont discuss the Genocide with me at all. But were still friends.
So my question is Do Turkish people recognize there was an Armenian Genocide?
Do Turkish-Americans do?
And why do some Turks deny there was a genocide?
Thanks/
