What does an ideal world look like? Given Kapolyo answers without hesitation: one where inequality does not exist, and leadership is not a male sport. In this Smoke Signals, she lays out her feminist utopia, then grounds it in the everyday realities that prove the fight is far from over. It doubles as a passing of the mic, recorded as Given steps in to host the seasons ahead. What you'll hear Her vision of a world where women lead from the front, unapologetically, and no one sits on the throne Why she refuses to define feminism for other women, or the ideal feminist man for men The real test of a feminist man: refusing to benefit from patriarchy, not just naming it In her words "I dream of a world where taking up leadership is not a male sport." "When a man counts what he owns, he begins with his wives." "Nobody is going to hand it over to us. We need to fight." About Given Kapolyo is a Zambian feminist and activist, and the incoming host of Troublemakers. A Troublemakers production, made at MS TCDC in partnership with Beautiful Trouble and MOVE. Produced by Kijiweni Productions.
