Why do Asians have an above average capacity for maths and science? Why do societies go to war? Why do blacks vote Democrat? Why are men more likely to die of preventable diseases than women? Why is Africa synonymous with bad leadership?
This episode of the podcast is a discussion with Professor Shakumzi Mfecane, Head of Department of Sociology and Anthropology at the University of the Western Cape, South Africa. An Anthropologist, we discuss his work on masculinity – what does it mean to be a man in African terms?
But we go beyond that, and talk about a number of issues, including Thabo Mbeki, Mr. Malusi Gigaba and leadership in Africa. Enjoy!
