Bay Area s Armenian Community Reacts After Biden Recognizes Genocide Christie Smith and Marriane Favro © Provided by NBC Bay Area It was a historic day Saturday as President Joe Biden became the first United States President to recognize the deaths of Armenians more than 100 years ago as genocide. Members of the Bay Area s Armenian community gathered Saturday at the Mount Davidson cross in San Francisco as they do every year. But this time around, things were a little different. “We have this profound sense of relief and pride in government and president today to change the course of US foreign policy on the side of restoring our position as a champion and beacon of human rights,” said Roxanne Makasdjian with The Genocide Education Project.
