An anthropologist proposed a game to children of an African Tribe. He put a basket of fruit near a tree and told the kids that the first one to reach the fruit would win them all. When he told them to run they all took each others hands and ran together, then sat together enjoying the fruits. When asked why they ran like that, as one could have taken all the fruit for oneself they said, "Ubuntu, how can one of us be happy if all the others are sad? "Ubuntu is a philosophy of African tribes that can be summed up as "I am because we are".
