Deep, meaningful lessons about inclusion can pop up in the most surprising places.Although, I suppose you might also argue that such lessons become obvious to me because I am open to them, or even that I am looking for them, but that's a whole different conversation.
Anyway, I was reading a novel - the seventeenth in a cozy mystery series that I have enjoyed over the years - when I stumbled across this line:
Ubuntu is a deep-seated belief that humanity is something we owe to one another. How I act toward you is what defines me. Not what I have or what I wear - but how I treat you, how I interact with you.
My "inclusion radar" immediately on high, I decided I need to know a little more about this South African concept.
