Father Wounds & Black Male Stereotypes with Malose Langa

Thanks for listening if you are joining for the first time, hope you enjoy the conversation and peace and love to you for coming back to listen.

On episode 59 I met with Malose Langa at The University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg to discuss his insights and reflections on working with men and boys. We discuss the impact of father wounds, why many men and boys feel the pressure to perform a certain type of masculinity to either fit in or protect their masciline identity and the perception of black men and boys in society.
