SUMMARY:Intergenerational Spring Festival: Ubuntu Circle of Humanity
DESCRIPTION:Free in-person and online! \nThis year’s spring festival\, hosted by Audrey Kindred & Simba Yangala\, with special guest artists\, is called “Ubuntu: circles of humanity on earth” \n\nThe concept of Ubuntu expresses a sense of interrelatedness that uplifts us all. Ubuntu is a deep concept from the cradle of humanity\, expressing a co-creational human dynamic of “creating beloved community” — interconnectedness\, mutuality\, belonging.  This term of African humanism\, expresses a notion that “people are people because of people.”  While this concept is expressed in many cultures\,  the theme of Ubuntu itself has been authentically shared with Young Ethical Explorers through the teachings of YEE teacher\, Simba Yangala.  We’ve been growing this theme since launching the Ethical community’s 2025 season with Dr. King’s emphasis on Beloved Community (with MLK fest\, banner\, special speaker\, colloquies …).\n \nGifts from Young Ethical Explorers will be shared with the community as we create a space for the deep values of ubuntu\, humanist belonging and beloved community  to thrive.\n\n\nAs Ethical NYC prepares to launch the 150th Year of the Ethical movement\, this gathering celebrates Felix Adler’s important notion\, certainly akin to Ubuntu\, that by bringing out the best others is how we can\, indeed\,  bring out the best in ourselves.\n\nOur April 13th spring festival launches Earth Day Awareness\, celebrating through the arts and community collaboration.\n\nCelebration will be followed by community lunch and social time on our peace playground.\n\nSpecial Guest Artist\nIsis Poulose\, dance choreographer and Fordham University graduate.\nJoin Online\nClick Here to RSVP on Zoom \nMonthly Collection\nTime Lapse Dance \nAbout Sunday Platform\nSunday Platform is our most important and long-standing community event.
