THE UBUNTU CLUB©

Hello and welcome to one of the most exciting concepts in e-publishing and social activism aimed at students. Yours has been called a complacent and apathetic generation, obsessed with self-indulgence and materialism, and caring little about the common good. Now you can do something to change that perception by becoming a member of  The Ubuntu Club©. For a modest monthly fee, join a global network of activist young people. Their mission: to help the less fortunate, to protect our environment, to promote peace and tolerance, and to change our world for the better.

Ubuntu is a Zulu word of Nguni origins. It means "our common humanity." Africans believe that one only becomes human (a Muntu) when one acknowledges and affirms the humanity of others. Ubuntu calls for charity, kindness, caring, generosity, sensitivity, tolerance, and love.

My sisters Diana (L) and Linah, Co-Chairs of The Ubuntu Club©

By joining The Ubuntu Club©, you'll be well on your way to become a Muntu. Here are the exciting benefits that a $10 per month membership will get you:

  • free monthly downloads of chapters of Mark's hard to find books

  • the opportunity to e-mail me with questions about chapters you've read

  • participation in a monthly chat group hosted by Linah, Diana and myself on how to best spread the spirit of Ubuntu

  • connection to pen-pals around the world who believe in the spirit of Ubuntu

  • a quarterly newsletter featuring articles -- written by you and edited by Linah and Diana -- on how we can best promote the spirit of Ubuntu by protecting the First Amendment, promoting human rights, and championing freedom, justice and peace around the world

  • an opportunity to win autographed copies of my books

  • a chance to win the grand prize of having me come lecture at your school for free*
