Dear MEL Topic Readers,
A guide to how you can support marginalized
communities
These men were the elected leader of the most
powerful nation in their respective region., the US in North America, Brazil in
South America, and Russia in Eastern Europe and Northern Asia. Each of them
claims himself as a powerful and capable leader. They are also quite vocal to
the public via Twitter and other media.
On March 10 when only 962 cases of
coronavirus and 28 deaths were reported in the US, Ronald Trump said they were prepared
and doing a great job with the novel virus, and it would go away.
On March 24 when 2,247 cases and 46 deaths were
reported, Jair Bolsonaro said the novel virus would be like the little flu or a little cold.
On April 19 when 42,853 cases and 362 deaths
were reported in Russia, Vladimir Putin said the situation was under total control.
As of the end of May, the reported number of coronavirus
cases were nearly 1.8 million in the US, about half a million in Brazil, and almost
400,000 in Russia, world's #1, #2, and #3, and increasing faster than any
other nation. Also, confirmed deaths by Covid-19 were over 100,000, nearly
30,000, and over 4,500 respectively.
None of these leaders has appeared with
a face mask yet, at least publicly.
Read the article and think about what a strong
leader means to their nation and people.
