According to Keeping and Shapiro, “The term ‘global citizenship’ is increasingly heard, especially in Canada, but rarely defined.”(as citied in Block and Friesen, 2012, page 215) I believe if a person who would like to places their own identity with a global community through actions much more than their identity about values and practices, they will become a part of global citizenship.

You need a green card to be eligible for this and you need to attach a copy to the form. The N-400 form is the form to get the process started

The world is a hectic mess today. News is happening all around us, and the only source that acts as a filter between the chaos and ourselves is the media.

Are you a citizen? Maybe you are. Maybe you aren’t. A citizen is a legally recognized subject. Citizenship is a status given by the government. Rome and Athens had very different systems of citizenship. But which system, Athens’ or Rome’s, was better?

According to Document D, “In conducting the census

Rights and Responsibilities of citizenship Generations from back then worked hard in order to preserve our rights.
