Archive of Kindness: Stories of everyday heroism during the South African lockdown (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

In a country gripped by the Covid-19 pandemic and the resulting lockdown, fear, loss and uncertainty were felt in all corners and by all. But, even in our darkest days, stories of immeasurable kindness emerged: of a woman reading to her neighbour's child through the fence; of a gardener who checked up on an old lady living alone on a farm and tended to her flowers; of a nurse who fed Weetabix to a dying man until the day he passed away, and of a man who gave his Wi-Fi password to his whole neighbourhood.

There are countless examples of micro-kindnesses which, though small, had a big impact on their recipients.

Archive of Kindness documents these and many other stories collected by Jess Auerbach and her students at North-West University. The book will act as a reminder of a difficult time in world history and how people living in South Africa lightened the load for others. We hope that this book will be a lasting testament to the goodwill inherent in our young and fragile nation and a reminder to always be kind.
