This genocide has happened to my great-grandfather all the way to me. Because this crime and what is happening to us doesn't have a name, we cannot address this, but if it has a name, you can prosecute this, and you can take away the impunity of the people who commit this and the people who benefit from this.
Nowadays people who have committed this and have benefited from it indirectly, they deny it. It hurts us. As much as what they did to my great-grandparents, as much as what they did to me, it hurts me when they deny it. This recognition is a relief, and it's very meaningful to my community and me.
Thank you.
