Divided family. Divided nation.

When Adesimba gives refuge to Muslims threatened in the backlash to 9/11, her FBI father and Black Panther stepfather forge a fragile alliance to shield her from the inevitable consequences of her actions.
Adesimba rejects their interventions, and relies, instead, on her spiritual resources — but will she be able to save the refugees, the community she’s put at risk, her fathers — and herself?

A social thriller about a fractured American family that is further divided by external political events,
AMERICAN UBUNTU tells the story of three people forced to face their painful differences, ultimately giving each the opportunity to come to a new understanding of who they are — as individuals, as a family, and as Americans.

Ubuntu is a popular Zulu expression that means, Because we are, I am.
In AMERICAN UBUNTU, we apply this perspective to post-9/11 USA.
