Hospitality Is Humanity

Hospitality is almost as old as humanity itself. Deep within us lies the capacity to open our doors to our neighbors: as humans, we are driven to welcome the stranger and build new relationships, even with those that appear different from us. Today, hospitality appears difficult and rare. Every day, people on the borders are discriminated against by those countries where they are seeking refuge. Hospitality as a value seems to have long been forgotten. But we can return to hospitality, and we should. Tracing the biblical roots of the concept and contextualizing it in the current migratory reality, Alberto Ares SJ argues that hospitality can help us deal with diversity and encourage processes of integration and social cohesion. With hospitality, we can learn again how to really dialogue with those who are different, and to accept each other within an inclusive world, where no one is left behind. So today, where hostility gains ground over hospitality, the practice of hospitality constitutes a genuine act of resistance. -------------------------------------------------- Xenia 3.0: Recreating Hospitality in a Diverse World (ENG) Xenía 3.0: Recreando la Hospitalidad en un Mundo Diverso (ESP) https://bit.ly/3E1OH1t ---------------------------------------------------- Translation and voice-over by Georgina Gomez-Bozzo Illustrations by Ivo de Jager
