A person may have multiple citizenships and a person who does not have citizenship of any state is said to be stateless’ (Wikipedia. Wikimedia Foundation, n.d. Web. 14 Dec. 2015.)

The orphan children are not white not white, male, nor property owners and are excluded from that privilege of life. Non- citizenship theory concept applies directly to them before the government got involved, they were ignored, pushed around, and abused.

Citizenship can hold different meanings to everyone. It can symbolize responsibility, unity and initiative. When considering which factors that determine the “goodness” of a citizen, I am reminded of a quote by Albert Einstein which states, “Strange is our situation here on Earth. Each of us comes for a short visit, not knowing why, yet sometimes seeming to divine a purpose. From the standpoint of daily life, however, there is one thing we do know: that man is here for the sake of other men -…

There is a topical ongoing debate in society about whether citizenship is becoming an outdated notion in the 21st century. Citizenship refers to the “state of being vested with the rights, privileges and duties of a citizen” (Dictionary, 2016).
