Spirit of Ubuntu: A Measure of Our World’s Emotional Wellness
I believe that the situation at our US-Mexico border is an invitation to put into practice our spirit of ubuntu and give witness to the emotional wellness of our society. It takes great courage and deep faith for families to leave their homes and loved ones to cross the border (wall, river or desert).
