California signs bill to teach students about Armenian genocide

The Governor of California signed a bill on Thursday that will see teaching on the Armenian genocide brought into public schools across the state.

Governor Jerry Brown signed the Armenian Genocide Education Act which will see survivor and witness testimony incorporated into the teaching of human rights across public schools. The bill will also encourage more professional development activities and resource development for teachers to educate their pupils about the genocide.
