In this section, we will put the concept of citizenship under the microscope. We will look at how citizenship is meant to work and how it actually works. The articles will take us through the history of citizenship, its development, and the many things that go into its operation.
This week will challenge ideas that we have been taught about citizenship and who truly citizen and has access to all that the word means.
