### Father's Day History, Presidential Proclamations and Global Variations

The origins of Father's Day are traced back to Spokane, Washington, where Sonora Smart Dodd founded the holiday in 1910 to honor her father, a Civil War veteran. While the first celebration occurred at the Spokane YMCA on June 19, 1910, President Barack Obama's 2014 proclamation cites a 1972 Joint Resolution of Congress that officially designated the third Sunday in June. International variations of the holiday are noted, including differences in celebration dates between the United States, Australia, and the Netherlands.

Victor Willis, the original lead singer of the Village People, successfully reclaimed the copyright to "YMCA" and 32 other songs under a 35-year reversion law. NPR's coverage of the story is criticized for focusing on the novelty of the band's costumes rather than the significant legal implications for artist rights and publishing income.
