What Does Citizenship Mean to You?
Sunday, December 13, 2020
What does it mean to be a citizen? It’s a question the world has grappled with since the time of Ancient Greece. Citizenship is a privilege, a benefit and sometimes a weapon. Here at OZY we think it’s a vital responsibility and one worth rethinking at a time of turmoil. As curious, globally minded people, we are hopeful the borders closed during the pandemic can reopen soon, so everyone can see more of the world. Amid a painful U.S. election aftermath that’s now even seeing calls for secession from the union, it’s increasingly clear that we need a positive, constructive effort to Reset America. Today’s Sunday Magazine explores the meaning of citizenship and how it’s changing rapidly. And we want you to weigh in: Respond to this email and tell us what citizenship means to you.
