Archbishop Desmond Tutu explains ubuntu like this:"Ubuntu- the essence of being human. Ubuntu speaks particularly about the fact that you can't exist as a human being in isolation. It speaks about our interconnectedness. You can't be human or by yourself. And when you have this quality, ubuntu, you are known for your generosity. And when you are welcoming ubuntu..." - Sundance Channel's "Iconoclasts"
"A person with Ubuntu is open and available to others, affirming of others, does not feel threatened that others are able and good, for he or she has a proper self-assurance that comes from knowing that he or she belongs in a greater whole and is diminished when others are humiliated or diminished, when others are tortured or oppressed." - Wikipedia
Learn it. Embrace it. Ubuntu.
