The philosophy of Contributionism was founded by Michael Tellinger in Johannesburg, South Africa in the year of 2005, when he started to promote the idea of a “world without money”. This idea came to Michael through his research into the origins of humankind and ancient human history – when he realised that the origins of money on our planet did not evolve out of thousands of years of barter and trade as we have been told, but that there was a very specific time, which is well described in the Sumerian clay tablets, when money was introduced as an absolute tool of enslavement over humanity, by the ancient royal political elite, whose bloodline descendants continue to use money as a tool of enslavement over the people today.

Five years later, the UBUNTU Liberation Movement was born out of this simple idea and started inspiring people all over the world, filling them with hope for the future and giving millions the confidence that there is a way out of the human misery and enslavement of humanity by the global royal-political and banking elite.
