Ebola means disconnection and isolation. How we miss embracing our friends and distant loved ones in this time of, "Don't touch. Stay away from gatherings". Can we only communicate via phone? No!
Our artists can remind us of the comfort of Unity when isolation fills us with loneliness. Liberian musicians have written Songs and more Songs about the dangers of Ebola. We needed that. Now we need to hear Songs of how we are defeating Ebola; of how we are empowered with our new knowledge about Ebola; our victories over Ebola and how we will continue fighting until it is no longer a threat. As we listen to this Unifying Music, we will connect with it, join in the Song and even Dance to the Rhythm. It's the Unity of spirit Music brings and feelings of loneliness and isolation are chased from our hearts. While this new Music is recorded, let our visual Artists make us fall in love with ourselves again. We need to connect with the beauty and strength of our land and Culture as many of our foreign concessionaires and foreign business people do. They are not moanin' and groanin' like us. They are movin' and groovin' - doing more business and making more money than ever.
