Summary The book is about Ubuntu--loosely translated--I am because we are--or, our common humanity in Zulu, about Unity, and global solidarity. It proves again how alike and universal we are as societies across the globe despite this deadly pandemic. On a personal and social basis, each of the six chapters is a call to action to find commonality, and this is the third book of Jahid's amelioration on Covid-19 Trilogy. And the Appendix is something special for the readership.
