#PassTheMic Archives

Danai Gurira and Trevor Noah discuss #PassTheMic & the need for a global COVID-19 response
We are going to have more pandemics in the coming years
This will be a defining period of our lives
COVID’s far-reaching, long-term effects include mental health
We have to learn from our mistakes
I hope this pandemic will be a wake-up call
We must believe in our power as women to change the system
COVID-19 has revealed inequalities on an unprecedented scale
We need a strategy that can cope with variations and mutations
Without a global response, we risk a world of tremendous inequality
Coronavirus has amplified inequities that exist in the health system
The collective effort gives me hope, but we can’t turn inward
We risk a second spike if we don’t get a coordinated response
We need effective and collaborative action
None of us are safe until all of us are safe
If we’re left alone to fight this, I don’t think we stand a chance
