Zimbabwean student Kerry-Ann
Ratidzo Moyo speaking at the University of Richmond
Virginia, United States representing the graduating class of 2024.
She spoke about the African philosophy of UBUNTU.
Ubuntu says if I undermine your humanity, I dehumanise myself.
It lies at the heart of the African philosophy and way of life, thus impacts on critical aspect of people’s well-being.
Ubuntu is not just a word; it's a deeply ingrained philosophy which shapes communities, cultures, and individual lives across Africa.
It expresses philosophically human interdependence and acknowledgment of one's responsibility to their fellow humans and the world around them.
It is a philosophy that promotes collectivism over individualism. Ubuntu asserts society gives human beings their humanity.
As a parting shot, Moyo says:
"Whatever you decide to pursue, never forget the power, the prevalence, and the privilege of human connection and the value that your existence brings to those around you."
