Over the past few months, during the COVID-19 pandemic, a song called Jerusalema produced by South African DJ Master KG has trended on social media. Some Africans from Angola danced to it in a video, which is now known as #JerusalemaDance. Later it resulted in a #JerusalemaDanceChallenge on TikTok.
Jerusalema has taken on diverse meanings for different people around the world. In South Africa, it took a celebratory meaning: to celebrate South Africa’s diverse heritage. DIVERSITY. For others, Jerusalema is a symbol of a potential UNITY for fractured communities. Many people desire unity and PEACE. We long for a world where peace, LOVE, and HAPPINESS rule.
