In conversation with Hindolo Pokawa founder of Sierra Leone Foundation for New Democracy as he prepares to walk 315 miles from Kailahun to Freetown in solidarity with victims of sexual violence. Hindolo shares his childhood memories growing up in a house with defined gender roles, domestic violence, and toxic masculinity. We discuss the burden of womanhood in Sierra Leone, lost indigenous values that once revered women, and how men can unlearn toxic masculinity.

For the Sierra Leonean man ready to accept that their father and male relations normalized violence and force against women this Make Sierra Leone Famous Podcast episode is a good place to start.
