Songs for Corona

Jun 23, 2020

MCLC's Director of Communications, Makanacky Magloire, who goes by the stage name Strong G, released a new single. In the catchy Lave Men Nou, Strong G urges his listeners to wash their hands, stay home whenever possible, and wear masks outside of the home. The song dispels myths about the virus and challenges misinformation circulating around Haiti. The lyrics stress how easily Corona spreads and why prevention education is key.

Strong G's Lave Men Nou begins with a freestyle by one of MCLC's youngest students. Her short version says:

stay home / wear your mask if you must go buy food/ wear your mask or you will die

Young minds are fascinating!

Please share these videos with your friends! Stay home, wear your masks, and wash your hands!
