Trial for amendment of Article 11 of the Nationality Law
Under the current Japanese Nationality Law, a person "automatically" loses Japanese nationality if he/she voluntarily acquires the nationality of another country.
Now, plaintiffs living in Switzerland and other countries are fighting in court to amend this. I think this is an important trial for those of us living in the US.
There is a petition campaign on change.org to amend Article 11 of the Nationality Law. Currently, about 43,000 votes have been collected, but it would be great if more people would sign the petition. The next trial will be held in September. By the way, I am an individual and not a member of this association.

There are two ways of thinking about nationality, "nativism" and "pedigree," but since Japan is a pedigree-based country due to its historical background, what can we do?
Everyone has received a great deal of benefit from being born Japanese since childhood, so of course we must respect the historical background and culture of Japan.
