Considering Citizenship: Representing US Americans Living Abroad
Martha McDevitt-Pugh (https://www.linkedin.com/in/marthamcdevittpugh/) and her partner moved to the Netherlands over 20 years ago for 2 reasons: 1) For love, and 2) A negative reason, at the time same-sex marriage was illegal in the United States. Around that time, the Netherlands became the first country in the world to legalize same-sex marriage (https://www.forbes.com/sites/roberthart/2021/04/01/the-netherlands-celebrates-20-years-since-becoming-the-first-country-to-legalize-same-sex-marriage-by-floating-a-giant-pink-cake-down-amsterdams-canals/?sh=2201b1654c1a). Over the last 20 years, Martha and her wife have started the Love Exiles initiative (originally a series of Thanksgiving dinners that later became a foundation and activist effort to change US law), and Martha has been involved in Democrats Abroad (https://www.democratsabroad.org/), which aims to help all US citizens abroad practice their right to vote, navigate filing taxes, and other civil responsibilities.
In this final episode of Season 2, we explore what it means to be both a citizen of the country represented on your passport, and a citizen beyond that passport.

Sein Park is originally from South Korea, but she has spent a third of her life outside of her home country, primarily in Germany. The significant amount of time she has spent in a culture different from the one she grew up in has provided her with a rich perspective on how people in South Korea approach life differently from those in Germany and Scandinavia - primarily, with what attitude do you approach the present moment?
Join GTR for a conversation reflecting on how culture shapes the way we tackle every day life, and how spending time in different cultures makes us more aware that the way we grew up living is not the only way...
