In this episode, An Intersectional Lens to Gender Inequality and GBVF, host Mpho Nyamathe reflects on the sociological theory of Intersectionality to dissect gender inequality and Gender-Based Violence and Femicide (GBVF) in South Africa. 

Guided by the sociological works of Dr. Patricia Hill Collins, Mpho Nyamathe takes a closer look at the intersecting inequalities experienced by Gogo Phetsana, an elderly woman who was waiting for housing, running water and a flushing toilet under the RDP Programme. From the apartheid era, she died without ever having access to these services, thereby living through systemic inequalities. 

The episode encourages listeners to rethink social inequalities so that policies are reflective of people living in South Africa. 

Here’s to bold conversations, real solutions!

EP 8 The Politics of You and Me: An Intersectional Lens to Gender Inequality and GBVF

The sources discuss the psychology and sociology of end-of-life conversations, particularly between parents and children. They explain how these discussions, although often difficult and imperfect, are profoundly important for both the dying person and their loved ones, offering a chance for closure, affirmation of love, and acknowledgment of a legacy. The texts also highlight the impact of cultural and social factors on these interactions, providing practical guidance for navigating them with presence and authenticity. They note the lasting significance of these exchanges for survivors and their grief journeys.
