Flag Day is already a well-known and beloved competition among students from five high schools in Bucharest, organized by the Public Diplomacy Section. Participating for the first time, this year’s high schools (Mihai Eminescu, Nicolae Iorga, C.A. Rosetti, Mihail Sadoveanu and Dimitrie Paciurea) developed depictions of all 50 U.S. States and the District of Columbia.
Held in the Embassy’s courtyard for the first time, the 150 students exhibited the displays they created to illustrate representative elements for each of the states, all related to the history, culture and language of the Native Americans. The winners received American books and stationary and had a fun pizza picnic on the lawn.

The rainbow flag flying above the Castro district. You can't really tell from the photo, but it's an enormous flag, almost but not quite as big as the American flag that flies on Ithaca's south hill near Rogan's Corner.

To celebrate Flag Day on June 13, for the 8th straight year the U.S. Embassy's Public Diplomacy Section organized a competition with high school students to develop depictions of all 50 U.S. States and the District of Columbia. Nearly 300 enthusiastic high school students took part in the competition which took place at the Ambassador’s residence where they exhibited the displays they created to illustrate various representative elements of each of the states, in order to convey the message for this year’s theme: “America’s Strength: The Diversity of Its People”. First time participating, this year's high schools were: Gheorghe Lazar (Bucharest), Mihai Viteazul (Bucharest), Nicolae Balcescu (Oltenita), Decebal (Bucharest) and Ion Neculce (Bucharest).

Rund 300 Menschen, hauptsächlich Kurden, sowie Angehöriger linker Gruppen, versammeln sich in Berlin am Brandenburger Tor, um mit einer Demonstration durch Berlins Mitte zu ziehen. Anlass ist der Einmarsch der Türkei in Afrin (Efrin) im Norden Syriens. Die kurdischen Selbstverteidigungseinheiten YPG und YPJ verteidigen sich gegen die türkischen Truppen.
Die Teilnehmer fordern ein Ende der Waffenlieferungen durch Deutschland an die Türkei und ein Eingreifen der Bundesregierung.
Very large 38 star US post flag, 10' x 19'. Said to have hung on the Hull Building along Wall Street on Parade Days. This flag design became the Official United States Flag on July 4th, 1877. A star was added for the admission of Colorado (August 1st 1876) and was to last for 13 years.
Donated to the Scranton Memorial Library in 2013 by Anne Hull. The library then donated the flag to MHS in Jan 2021. Flag is fair-to-poor condition with repairs and tears.
