“One of the sayings in our country is Ubuntu - the essence of being human. Ubuntu speaks particularly about the fact that you can't exist as a human being in isolation. It speaks about our interconnectedness. You can't be human all by yourself, and when you have this quality - Ubuntu - you are known for your generosity. We think of ourselves far too frequently as just individuals, separated from one another, whereas you are connected and what you do affects the whole World. When you do well, it spreads out; it is for the whole of humanity.” ThinkingWorldHumansWellsCountryWholeFactsHumanityIndividualSpeakHuman BeingsQualityKnownEssenceSpreadConnectedWhole WorldOur CountryGenerosityIsolationBeing HumanUbuntuInterconnectednessYour Generosity Author:Desmond Tutu

“When the Jew says "mankind" he is talking about himself. It is written in the Talmud, that only Jews were human beings, gentiles on the other hand were animals created to serve the chosen people. If looking back and comparing the corresponding articles in the "democratic" and "neutral" countries, one is astonished at the systematic nature of the propaganda whose final goal was the creation of a state of affairs in which a war was inevitable.” PeopleIfsHumansWarCountryStatesHandsGoalHuman BeingsAnimalTalkingWrittenMankindCreationDemocraticFinalsAffairJewChosenInevitableComparePropagandaArticlesLooking BackSystematicCorrespondingGentiles Author:Julius Streicher
“A great wave of humiliation and shame swept over me.
