An ode to the most sophisticated men of Jozi. This editorial draws from the legacy of Johannesburg’s Zulu Swenkas. Men who reimagined masculinity and self-expression in the face of systemic injustice. The Swenkas remain a symbol of refusal to be suppressed, reminding us all, of the power in self-definition.
