Isintu
The Zulu people of South Africa have a word for humankind or humanity that has greater meaning than those terms do in English.
Isintu refers to the special interactions among people which make each person involved in the exchange feel more connected, more fulfilled, and more whole.
We believe that isintu is manifest in the compassion and strength we are all capable of giving one another, and that it is the way to transform lives and communities.
