In his new book, Dr. Khatchig Mouradian explores the history of the underground resistance operating in Ottoman Syria who protected the lives of thou-sands during the Armenian Genocide. Challenging the idea of Armenians as passive victims, Mouradian shows their active role in the formation of a humanita-rian network to fight the destruction of their people. 

Dr. Khatchig Mouradian is a lecturer in Middle Eastern, South Asian, and African Studies (MESAAS) at Columbia University.
