“I was born in a kindergarten. Something terrible had happened
to my hometown two and a half years earlier that had left the city
without a maternity hospital.”
Tune in to THE QUAKE - a new podcast miniseries from the USC
Institute of Armenian Studies where the Institute’s Chitjian
Research Archivist Gegham Mughnetsyan explores the very personal
and public history of the powerful earthquake that devastated the
northern region of Armenia and his hometown Gyumri on December 7,
1988, and delves into the challenges that complicated the region’s
recovery process.
