Many who are making the necessary sacrifices for the collective good have never known what it feels like to have their own welfare protected by the state or community. Some governments seem humbled, tentatively steering populations through the crisis, affirming any and all demonstrations of civic responsibility, dripfeeding and parsing restrictions, sequencing the asks according to urgency and legitimacy. Why waste a good crisis, when it's possible to use it to purge and 'purify', to spread racism and communal hatred? Community development workers and activists weary of begging Editorial 3 governments for funding for essential services and welfare nets have learned that in the right/wrong circumstances money can be found. We might think of all those who do these things, not because governments or political leaders exhort them to, but because they know and have always known that humanity must be re-socialised, especially at times of crisis.	./cache/cord-024316-nc38gr2f.txt	./txt/cord-024316-nc38gr2f.txt
