Celebrating global citizenship on the Fourth of July

The World

While today’s Fourth of July will remind many of us of what it means to be an American, for a handful, the national holiday will pay tribute to only one of several citizenships. More and more Americans are electing to obtain dual citizenship derived from their European ancestry.
Guests: Martin Flaherty, Fordham Law School, and Peter Spiro, a law professor at Temple University, talk about the growing appeal of European citizenships.

Do you support journalism that strengthens our democracy?

At The World, we believe strongly that human-centered journalism is at the heart of an informed public and a strong democracy. We see democracy and journalism as two sides of the same coin. If you care about one, it is imperative to care about the other.

Every day, our nonprofit newsroom seeks to inform and empower listeners and hold the powerful accountable. Neither would be possible without the support of listeners like you. If you believe in our work, will you give today? We need your help now more than ever!
