“Never Give Up” by Berkshires native and Mahaiwe alum Billy Keane
"This concept of a pandemic — I don't think it just refers to the spread of disease. Fear, loneliness, desperation, they can be contagious too. But so can hope, love and compassion... I think this is a learning moment. We can learn to engage with people, with our own emotions. Our own hope, that can be pandemic too." —Billy Keane in The Berkshire Eagle
