PEOPLE HELP THE PEOPLE

By: Simon Aldred
Sung by: BIRDY

 The message that really stood out to me during this song, was that we should not go into our community block with our preconceived idea of poor = uneducated and therefore weak, corrupt & foolish, but rather that we remember that we are working with people who did not get to choose the circumstances that they were born into and that they may possess qualities that other communities of a higher economic statues do not have or lack. There is a whole lot that we can learn from the people in our surrounding communities!

  1. What does it mean to be poor? Who decides whether one is poor or not?
