Today I learned What Ubuntu means. Ubuntu is a South African ethonophylosophy, the word translates to “Humanity” or “The essence of being human”.
The philosophy gravitate towards the idea of relational identity. “A person is a person through other people”.
Another thing to note abour Ubuntu is that is the way it approaches Justice. Ubuntu adopts forgiveness instead of revange as a way to end the latter’s vicious cycle.
The Ubuntu philosophy has been adopted by know thinkers like Desmond Tutu and Nelson Mandela.
