A Quote from Archbishop Desmond Tutu:
“Ubuntu is very difficult to render into a Western language. It speaks of the very essence of being human... It is not, ‘I think therefore I am.’ It says rather: ‘I am human because I belong, I participate, I share.’”

Ubuntu in the Hearts of African Forefathers
To the ancestors and elders, Ubuntu was not just a belief—it was a lifestyle. It governed how people:

Treated neighbors, strangers, and even enemies.

Resolved conflict through dialogue rather than violence.

Shared resources like food, water, and land.

Raised children as a community (“It takes a village to raise a child” is rooted in Ubuntu).

Celebrated life through rituals and togetherness.

Ubuntu was the spiritual and social glue that held African societies together before colonization disrupted many indigenous systems.
