Rethink: Tara Westover says: 'We are one people, and all are needed"
author Tara Westover , shows That she has taken more notice of Other People , as the pandemic haunted - especially key Workers . You would like to come together The People As One and not be divided by class, education or profession.
In the early days of this pandemic, we were told That Covid-would 19, the "great Equalizer" - it would be us together, as it would be on all the same.
the Rich and poor, urban and rural, members of each ethnic group. People with advanced degrees, and those who never finished elementary school.
The idea was That a Bud is subject to those prejudices, which The People so often. It is not impressed by money or blinded by prestige. It's not the skin color, or to subscribe to gender stereotypes. A germ is blind biology. Its a virtue of their supposed impartiality.
of course, none of this turned out to be true.
The Virus was impaired, in fact, deep. Devastated, and more men than women, and The Old More Than the young.
In America , where I live, The Black population and other ethnic minorities suffered disproportionately to their white colleagues. So the poor and the less educated have.
The Virus , it turned out, was pretty biased. But it was a meaningful way That it was, in fact, a kind of compensation - it made us aware of the need to make the a lot of forgotten people, whose Hard Work , our lives possible.
I noticed The Change about a week into The Crisis .
A friend of mine ordered online delivery, and added a 50% tip. "Everyone from the provision of food in a pandemic, deserves every penny, He Said .
A week later, a water pipe burst in The House I lived in. Suddenly, I was without running water. But The Next morning A Man came, dressed with a small cloth mask. He replaced the tube, and I had running water.
He didn't have the luxury to sit At Home in quarantine. He had decided to risk it - to Help Me and to protect his livelihood.
And the same choice Every Day , will be taken by nurses and chefs and cashiers and truck drivers and factory Workers .
BBCI' ve been thinking lately That education is the new social dividing line, perhaps even More Than wealthTara Westoverthe author
all of the difficult images and stories, resulting from this, perhaps moving The Most , That of the thugs on The Streets , when The People roar and whistle and Bang pans to thank the front-line Workers .
Doctors and nurses, Yes, but also janitors, delivery people and food business. To keep a whole army of people working outside of their homes the rest of us safe and well.
These are not the rich and famous, or the so-called elite. They are often not paid very well for what they do. Many of them don't go to College, and therefore they are looked sometimes down on those who did have this privilege.
I've been thinking lately That education is the new social dividing line is, perhaps even More Than wealth. And we forget That in many cases, wealth and education belong together. Education has spread to a privilege according to wealth and status.
The modern economy has had a huge hunger for college-educated Workers , and the result is in front of the coronavirus That many of our employees around The World , felt rejected and left. They said there was No Place for them in The World we make.
We have, I think, a little biased towards the work. We started To Believe That if someone is not authenticated, you must not be diligent.
We have tacitly accepted the idea That The Professional classes are somehow harder working or more deserving of respect than The People who work with their hands. But everyone deserves respect.
There are many things I don't miss when this pandemic is over. I'm not going to miss, face masks, hand or sanitizer or latex gloves. Or the questioning of My Friends , you have seen in The Last 14 days, before I agree, an outdoor walk.
But in the post-coronavirus The World , I hope we keep the spirit of gratitude and appreciation for The People , to keep the lights on, the factories open, the farms are stocked and the tubes are clear. Those who cook, farm, drive, care, lot, wire, washing and building.
I hope we don't remind ourselves, We Are two Nations, not The Elite and non-elite, college educated and not, urban and rural, White Collar and The Blue .
We Are one people, and all of them are necessary.
BBC Radio 4 , Radio 5 Live and The World Service coming together for a unique collaboration: the BBC Reconsider. It asks how to change society and our lives for the better, after the Covid-19 crisis.
