The Essential Power of Belonging | Caroline Clarke | TEDxBeaconStreetSalon

[@koketsomokone2975]

She said it all to be honest! Im South African, and the way we traditionally relate to one another is steeped in the simple concept of recognition of each other's humanity: the term 'Ubuntu' as relatively widely known around the world. In my tribe, the baTswana of Southern Africa, Ubuntu = Botho. Biblically, this concept is akin to the second, and only other, commandment on which all of the law hangs: "Love your neighbour as yourself". If there was anything that I point to as having made me proud to be African, it is our recognition of the humanity of others. Her story has inspired deep reflection on one of my most burning passions, the struggle to restore the humanity of a numb world. Beautiful story

I rarely ever cry, I tend to keep it all inside. But, while listening, tears started falling down my face. Then I was laughing and crying uncontrollably. This message is so simple and yet, just to hear a message of belonging, deeply affected me. Thank you for this beautiful message

[@graceintheplace13]

Oh my gosh, I came here to say that I don't know why I'm crying, but I really needed to hear this today. I'm glad you were also deeply affected in a positive way. I hope you are well.

[@NotsoEthos]

So kind :) I forgot I commented on this video, except I remember how impactful this message was for me. I hope you are well too

I'm here because my university's human service club posted a social justice initiative and I'm learing so much about what makes a community and how to feel a sense of belonging through the environmebnt, interatction and sense of safety and so much more. We need to connect in other ways other than virtual.
