Wondering about the meaning of our name, Ubuntu?
There was once an anthropologist who had been studying the habits and culture of a remote African tribe. One day, he put together a gift basket filled with delicious fruits from around the region and called the children together for a small race.
The man drew a line on the ground, looked at the children and said, “When I tell you to start, run to the tree. Whoever gets there first, will win the fruit basket.” As soon as the race began, the children held each other’s hands and ran to the tree together.
They then sat under the tree and
enjoyed the fruits together. Shocked, the anthropologist asked the children,
“Why did you go together when one of you could have the entire fruit
basket?”
A young girl looked up at him and said, “How can one of us be happy if all the
other ones are sad?” and this is called spirit of UBUNTU which means “I am
because We are”.
