‍Spinning off from our Restorative Cultural Ubuntu Experience & Ubuntu Restorative Taskforce for our adult leaders.  Frassie’s Restorative Cultural Ubuntu Experience is an additional training requirement for our students participating in the student taskforce.

Ubuntu Restorative Justice Student Taskforce’s

‍main goals are to work mindfully & respectfully to eliminate racism.  Our goal is to present Frassie’s Restorative Cultural Ubuntu Experience to Ubuntu Restorative Justice Taskforce Members.

UBUNTU – I am because we are – Ubuntu is  A philosophical doctrine or approach to life that emphasizes social unity and generosity of spirit. [Zulu : ubu-, abstract n. pref. + -ntu, person, human .]  Ubuntu is also translated as "I am because we are," or "humanity towards others," or in Xhosa, "umntu ngumntu ngabantu" but is often used in a more philosophical sense to mean "the belief in a universal bond of sharing that connects all humanity.”  The ideation that we all are related.

Ubuntu Restorative Taskforce’s

mission is to connect us on a universal level.  This is also the humanity piece.  Regardless of our culture, we are all from one race… the human race.  FACT:  Our strongest connection is that we all are human.  We all share that commonality.
