This song has inspired me to do a new story with stop-motion model illustrations, inspired by the 'We Are One' sequence in The Lion King II - One!
In 'One', a mother tiger teaches her cub about how humankind is one big race of 7 billion. As the cub interacts with other animals, his mother takes him across the Indian jungle, through the human village and across the universe to show him religions, gods and human people that makes us one big family.
The puppets will be done by Mackinnon & Saunders, and Factory will do the pictures for the book. It'll also have an accompanying CD featuring India.Arie's original song. Inspired by Indian culture and one of the songs from The Lion King II, I hope children will understand world peace because of the story/song!
