“The White Armband Day campaign aims to give a voice to victims of mass atrocities around the world in their struggle for the truth, dignity & remembrance. We call upon you to wear a white armband on 31 May and place a white sheet on your window for ten minutes in memory of the non-Serb citizens of Prijedor, Bosnia-Herzegovina, who were subjected to a campaign of extermination in 1992, and all victims throughout the world who are facing denial of their suffering. The actions of the authorities in the city of Prijedor then, in 1992, when this brutal campaign of violence was implemented and now, when the city government denies the crimes that have taken place, is a universal example of the oppression we are fighting in all corners of the world.” >more (c) STOP GENOCIDE DENIAL
