Podcast of the Month: Inside Men’s Minds (Cry Like a Boy)

Let’s check out the podcast “Inside Men’s Minds,” produced by Euronews. In its first episode, “The Abatangamuco in Burundi”: Theater, journalist Arwa Barkallah analyzes the social pressure weighing on men in this African country, as well as the constraints women face in a system that does not favor them. To rethink their masculinity, the actors of the theater troupe “Abatangamuco ” (“those who shine” in Kirundi) use the transformative power of art to tell their story and to show that it’s possible to reclaim one’s identity and change one’s behaviors to build new, more compassionate and respectful ways of relating to others. Feel free to explore the six episodes of this podcast, also available in English (“Cry like a boy”).
