African tribe that does the most beautiful thing
I was recently told of an African tribe that does the most beautiful thing.
When someone does something hurtful and wrong, they take the person to the center of town, and the entire tribe comes and surrounds him. For two days they’ll tell the man every good thing he has ever done.
The tribe believes that every human being comes into the world as GOOD, each of us desiring
But sometimes in the pursuit of those things people make mistakes. The community sees misdeeds as a cry for help.
They band together for the sake of their fellow man to hold him up, to reconnect him with his true Nature, to remind him who he really is, until he fully remembers the truth from which he’d temporarily been disconnected: “I AM GOOD”.

this is the actively caring for people perspective. and psychological science suggests caring and feedback is more effective than punishment! (see http://www.ac4p.org)

You just categorized all tribes and all Africans. We lack of love and understanding. That is the ancient way to circumcise. Just as the ancient tattoos by Asian culture was an actual stick needle dipped in ink, no numbing toxins used then. Americans are so programmed. What is the name of this tribe by the way?

So lovely. On another note, this is the same people who circumcise their teenagers without anaesthetic and if they wince or scream during the procedure they will be publicly shamed. But I have always loved the Samburi and Massai people <3 Look at them jump!
