1/6 Our children will remember this #coronsvirus lockdown very differently that the adults will. When I was 8 living in Lima, Peru during the time when the terrorist group called the Shinning Path decended onto the city
2/6 they began detonating bombs strategically (causing water and power outages) and cruelly (blowing up unwanted “capitalist” buildings) there was a full out lockdown and curfews set. We went about our houses with candlelight and tubs full of drinking water for weeks at a time.
3/6 my parents and older relatives obviously recount this as a trying time, yet when I discuss this with my contemporaries we all remember it much differently, almost with a sense of fondness. It was a time to be with your tribe exclusively.
