Mongrelisation is a critical re-interpretation of why diversity and inclusion matter. It is a corrective that grants dignity and worth to those the 'mongrel' epithet is set to insult. Drawing on African moral traditions of Ubuntu and Maat, it contends that mongrelity--the reality that we are products of mixing and crossing--is too central in our histories, biologies, ecologies, and cultures not to be carefully humanised.
