The challenges of men working with men

Episode 23

Thursday, December 23, 2021 • Duration 16:29

The job of Edward Wageni, the director of HeForShe*, is to find the tools to help men change their behaviours towards women and push for structural shifts on all levels.

In this episode of Cry Like a Boy, we discuss the challenges that Wageni faces working with men and why gender equality is good for everyone, not just women.

*HeForShe is a UN initiative that focuses on engaging men and boys to achieve gender equality. The movement has numerous famous ambassadors, among them is actor Emma Watson, who was one of the first voices of the campaign in 2014 with a speech that quickly went viral.

Banna Ba Mamaenara in Lesotho: Absent fathers

Season 1 · Episode 12

Thursday, April 1, 2021 • Duration 20:11

Across Southern Africa, thousands of men are abandoning stable education and employment and are instead seeking a fantasy fortune in South Africa's abandoned mines. The illegal miners, known as the zama zamas, not only put their lives at risk but also leave their families behind in countries like Lesotho and Zimbabwe for weeks if not months at a time.

In this episode, we explore how men's desire for status can be destructive for families and how future generations are impacted by growing up with absent fathers. We delve into the conversation with Mpiwa Mangwiro, an advocacy specialist for MenEngage Africa Alliance based in Johannesburg, and Rosalind Morris, an award-winning anthropologist who has launched a project devoted to the illegal miners in South Africa.

This show has been produced by Khopotso Bodibe, in Johannesburg; Pascalinah Kabi in Maseru, Lesotho; Lillo Montalto Monella, Marta Rodríguez Martinez, Naira Davlashyan, Arwa Barkallah and Mame Peya Diaw in Lyon. Special thanks go to Lory Martinez and Clizia Sala from Studio Ochenta. The music theme by Gabriel Dalmasso.

Banna Ba Mamaenara in Lesotho: No man's land

Season 1 · Episode 10

Thursday, March 4, 2021 • Duration 20:05

There's an impoverished mountainous district of Lesotho where many illegal mineworkers live with their families. Women often wait there for their husbands for months and sometimes years. Some men never return. In this episode, we talk about the fate of the people left behind by those men tasked by their families to provide, tasked to be breadwinners.

In this episode, we used music by Lesotho artist Selimo Thabane. You can check out his work at selimothabane.org.

Banna Ba Mamaenara in Lesotho: Brothers of darkness

Season 1 · Episode 9

Thursday, February 18, 2021 • Duration 20:59

How far are you willing to go to provide for your family? Would you put your life at risk to put bread on the table? What if you had no choice? In Lesotho thousands of men have felt so much pressure to provide for their families that they are employed by criminal gangs as illegal miners, digging for gold in clandestine mines. In some cases, they will never see the light again.

In this episode, we used extracts of the song ‘Marina’ by Rocco Granata, originally recorded in 1959. We also used music by Lesotho artist Selimo Thabane. You can check out his work at selimothabane.org and follow him on Facebook, Instagram, and Youtube as Selimo Thabane.

Correction: The study conducted by Joanna Syrda shows that men who are the only earners are relatively stressed but they were not as stressed as men whose partners are the principal earners. Also, her research does not address the consequences for society, but only focuses on spousal relative income and male psychological distress.
