Article 15


Article 15:

"Everyone has the right to a nationality.

No one shall be arbitrarily deprived of his nationality nor denied the right to change his nationality"

 

Assimilation is the key

To strip from man his nationality.

To take his people

His mind

And tongue

Is to force a new identity upon a previous one.
