It’s time we gave up our privilege

As the coronavirus matches on throughout the world, yet unchecked by a viable and available vaccine, Kenyans who previously were aggressively pursuing their dreams and aspirations are now on their knees, desperate for help. These people are not lazy.

They have worked hard throughout their careers to build solid reputations as productive, stable people who took care of their families (even the extended ones). They built businesses from the ground up and woke up early to grow their careers and businesses. Now they have been reduced to pleading for help just to survive and get by.
