Ubuntu - humanness or humanity to others Viewing Ubuntu as a philosophy from an African culture is in itself an appropriate recognition of the fact that philosophy is for everyone, not only for the few who claim to be the “elite” in philosophizing. N.A. Gianan, philpapers.org/rec/GIAVTE Abstract - The article aims to support the notion of philosophy emerging from culture; a notion that paves the way for the emergence of ubuntu as a philosophy from an African culture. Understanding this emergence is vital in the manner a particular human community relates with itself and other communities worldwide. Moreover, the idea of ubuntu has become a philosophy that is in dialogue with culture. Hence, from the writer’s punto de vista, this stance further strengthens the argument affirming the value of African culture from which African philosophy has certainly emerged. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_%28philosophy%29
