[ON AIR] Eusebius McKaiser engages a panel of Black womxn-led civil society organisations. They focus on the challenges they face with Fatima Shabodien, Kwezilomso Mbandazayo and Phumi Mtetwa @KwezilomsoM@fatimashabodien@Eusebius
@Radio702@KwezilomsoM@fatimashabodien@Eusebius I remember vividly, an incident where a colleague at TAC was handing out t-shirts at a march. A couple of young, vulnerable women who genuinely identified with the HIV struggle, at the time asked for t-shirts. He asked for sexual favours as a guarantee to getting them.
@Eusebius the problem with the “progressive man” trope is that those who wear it believe they no longer have any work to do. But unlearning patriarchy is daily work. Especially for those who hold male privilege.
Absolutely! Speaker on @Eusebius’ says that women alway understood the concept of consent and men must introspect on why they took so long to catch up?! Constant introspection by men and checking of behavior is needed. #NGOsexualharrasement
Don't forget to tune in to Eusebius Mckaiser Show on @Radio702 today at 10AM. Fatima @fatimashabodien will be discussing sexual harassment in the NGO sector, feminism, donor funding and more!
