Australia celebrates Citizenship Day on September 17th. The purpose of the day is to reflect on the importance, responsibilities, and benefits of being an Australian citizen. Many Nepali community members who have taken up Australian citizenship have expressed a sense of responsibility after becoming citizens. However, they point out, waiting in the queue for foreigners on a visit to Nepal would be unpleasantly uncomfortable, but it would be easier if the Nepali government provided dual citizenship as soon as possible. - सेप्टेम्बर १७ तारिखलाई अस्ट्रेलियामा सिटीजनसिप डेका रूपमा मनाउने चलन छ। अस्ट्रेलियन नागरिक हुनुको महत्त्व, वहन गर्नु पर्ने जिम्मेवारी र प्राप्त हुने सुविधाहरूका बारेमा विचार गर्ने अवसरका रूपमा यस दिनलाई लिइन्छ। सन् २००१ बाट मनाउन सुरु गरिएको सिटीजनसिप डेको अवसरमा अस्ट्रेलियाको नागरिकता लिएका नेपाली समुदायका सदस्यहरूले यहाँको नागरिक बनेपछि आफूहरू अझ जिम्मेवार अनुभव गरेको बताएका छन्। नेपाल जाँदा, विदेशी नागरिकको लाइनमा बस्दा असहज लाग्ने भए पनि नेपाल सरकारले दोहोरो नागरिकताको प्रावधान चाँडो गरिदिए सहज हुने उनीहरूले बताए।

On this episode of the Resistance Library Podcast, Sam and Dave discuss Constitution Day. Constitution Day is a dual observance: It celebrates both the day that the United States Constitution was adopted, as well as honors naturalized citizens of our country. Prior to 2004, the day was known as Citizenship Day. Its name was changed due to an amendment attached to a spending bill by Sen. Robert Byrd. While there was an archaic form of the holiday first celebrated in Iowa schools in 1911, a movement to adopt the day was advanced by the Sons of the American Revolution. This organization appointed a committee to lobby for the day that included figures such as then-Vice President Calvin Coolidge, John D. Rockefeller, and newly minted World War I hero General John J. Pershing. However, the origins of the day actually lie in the late 1930s.

"Constitution Day (or Citizenship Day), is an American federal observance that recognizes the adoption of the United States Constitution and those who have become U.S. citizens. It is normally observed on September 17, the day in 1787 that delegates to the Constitutional Convention signed the document in Philadelphia.[1] When Constitution Day falls on a weekend or on another holiday, schools and other institutions observe the holiday on an adjacent weekday.[2] The law establishing the present holiday was created in 2004 with the passage of an amendment by Senator Robert Byrd to the Omnibus spending bill of 2004.[3] Before this law was enacted, the holiday was known as "Citizenship Day" and celebrated on the third Sunday in May. In addition to renaming the holiday "Constitution Day and Citizenship Day," the act mandates that all publicly funded educational institutions, and all federal agencies, provide educational programming on the history of the American Constitution on that day.[4] In May 2005, the United States Department of Education announced the enactment of this law and that it would apply to any school receiving federal funds of any kind."

For this week’s Citizenship Day episode, Ali speaks with Valdeta Mehanja, a MAVNI program recruit and Army Black Hawk pilot-in-training who is currently serving in the Alabama National Guard. Originally from Kosovo, Val spent time in German refugee camps before working as a military contractor for the U.S., where she realized her passion for military service. She and Ali spoke about her journey to the U.S., and what it was like for her to become a citizen. Ali also speaks to Laura Bingham of the Open Society Justice Initiative about their new report, Unmaking Americans: Insecure Citizenship in the United States, which looks at the threats currently facing the longstanding protections of U.S. Citizenship.
1394 Charles VI suddenly published an ordinance in which he declared, in substance, that for a long time he had been taking note of the many complaints provoked by the excesses and misdemeanors which the Jews committed against Christians; and that the prosecutors, having made several investigations, had discovered many violations by the Jews of the agreement they had made with him. Therefore, he decreed as an irrevocable law and statute that thenceforth no Jew should dwell in his domains. According to the Religieux de St. Denis, the king signed this decree at the insistence of the queen, Isabeau of Bavaria. 1787 Following a speech by Benjamin Franklin, The Constitution of the United States of America is signed by 38 of 41 delegates present at the conclusion of the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia. The day will later be observed as I Am an American Day, which will be renamed to Constitution Day and Citizenship Day. Today, the U.S. Constitution is the oldest written constitution in operation in the world. 1859 San Franciscan Joshua A. Norton, frustrated by government bureaucracy, declares himself, 'Norton I, Emperor of the United States.' His edicts, including the abolition of the US Congress, endear him to many of his fellow residents, who encourage his delusions of grandeur. Norton had no official political power; nevertheless, he was treated deferentially in San Francisco, and currency issued in his name was honored in the establishments that he frequented. His "reign" would last for 21 years. 1868 Major George A. Forsyth and a volunteer force of 50 frontiersmen in Colorado come under a surprise attack by a large band of Cheyenne and Sioux natives. Retreating to a small sandbar in the Arikaree River that thereafter became known as Beecher's Island, Forsyth and his men succeeded in repulsing three massed Indian charges. Thanks to the rapid fire capability of their seven-shot Spencer rifles, Forsyth's volunteers were able to kill or wound many of the Indian attackers, including the war chief Roman Nose. But as evening came and the fighting temporarily halted, Forsyth found he had 22 men either dead or wounded, and he estimated the survivors were surrounded by a force of 600 Indians. The men faced certain annihilation unless they could somehow bring help. Two men-Jack Stilwell and Pierre Trudeau-volunteered to attempt a daring escape through the Indian lines and silently melted into the night. The battle raged for five more days. Forsyth's effective fighting force was reduced to ten men before the Indians finally withdrew, perhaps reasoning that they had inflicted enough damage. 1939 With the German army already attacking western Poland, the Soviet Union launches an invasion of eastern Poland. Soviet Foreign Minister Vyacheslav Molotov declares that the Polish government has ceased to exist, as the U.S.S.R. exercises the “fine print” of the Hitler-Stalin Non-aggression pact—the invasion and occupation of eastern Poland. The “reason” given was that Russia had to come to the aid of its “blood brothers,” the Ukrainians and Byelorussians, who were trapped in territory that had been illegally annexed by Poland. Now Poland was squeezed from West and East—trapped between two behemoths. Its forces overwhelmed by the modern German army, Poland had nothing left with which to fight the Soviets. The Soviet Union would wind up with about three-fifths of Poland and 13 million of its people as a result of the invasion.
