The internet is ever-present in our lives and can help us to understand the world around us, can put us in contact with friends, and can move us to tears. It can cheer us up, make us laugh, and be endlessly thought-provoking. This is especially important during times of international pain and crisis such as the killings of Black people by police and the COVID-19 epidemic.
Throughout the coronavirus pandemic, people have been trying to help and have been sharing or creating great content. Some of it is emotional, such as today’s first video, some of it is funny, and some of it is very clever.
