The 21: Recent Episodes
Thabo Kunutu and Bianca Wood
This is "The 21", where we focus on the different experiences of a vast group of interesting people from all over the world during the COVID-19 pandemic: their worries, their activities, their goals, their business plans etc. Over the 21-day lockdown period, our aim is not necessarily to talk about Corona statistics, but to create a compilation of different outlooks and put ourselves in the shoes of others during this 21-day social fast.
The 21 team says its goodbyes.
