Mayor Mashaba Kicks Off a Re Sebetseng Partnership with Global Citizen
A City of Johannesburg Press Statement by the Executive Mayor, Cllr Herman Mashaba Mayor Mashaba kicks off A Re Sebetseng partnership with Global Citizen Date: 11 September 2018 Release: immediate Today, the Executive Mayor of the City of Johannesburg, Cllr Herman Mashaba, is pleased to officially launch the City of Johannesburg’s partnership with Global Citizen for A Re Sebetseng clean-up campaigns. The partnership was announced last month, which bolsters efforts by the City to improve the environment, cut plastic use, and embrace a healthy lifestyle. With Global Citizen’s mission to build the largest movement of people taking action to end extreme poverty by 2030, it is only fitting that we combine our efforts towards this objective. Good progress has been made in this regard. So far, over 300 000 tonnes of waste has been collected since the launch in 2017. A Re Sebetseng (meaning “let’s work”in Sesotho) is a monthly call to action that encourages City employees and residents to come out in their numbers through volunteerism, and work together to turn Johannesburg into a City where residents can live, work and play in a healthy environment. This campaign will include educating Global Citizens about reducing plastic usage and encourage recycling waste. This campaign will kick off on Saturday 15th of September 2018, it coincides with World Clean Up Day. With the support of Mayor Mashaba, councillors, City departments and regional offices, Johannesburg residents are encouraged to unite with the rest of the world for one goal – a cleaner world. The City will provide bags and gloves to all participants which can be collected at City walk-in centres, depots, clinics and libraries. -

Soweto, The s“ torybook Place”: Tourism And Feeling In A South African Township Abstract This dissertation deals with the role of tour guides in creating and telling the story of Soweto – a township southwest of Johannesburg, South Africa. The ts ory speaks of a place afflicted by poverty because of its history of segregation during apartheid but emerging out of these struggles to lead its nation in a post-apartheid culture. I argue that Soweto’s story was created out of a governmental mandate for the township to become one of Gauteng’s tourism locations, and out of a knowledge that the transformation story from apartheid to a ‘rainbow nation’ would not sell in this context. After being created, Soweto’s story was affirmed through urban branding strategies and distributed to tourism markets across the world. It is a storybook – a narrative with a beginning, a climax, and an ending; it is easily packaged, marketed and sold to individuals from across the world, and this is done through the senses and emotions. -
Global Hip-Hop Culture and the Scopophilic Spectacle of Women in South African Hip-Hop Music Videos Ntebaleng Mpetsi Toks Oyedem
Ntebaleng Mpetsi Toks Oyedemi Global hip-hop culture and the scopophilic spectacle of women in South African hip-hop music videos ABSTRACT In many hip-hop music videos, women’s value is reduced to sensuous display of sexuality. As a result visual pleasure is created through the representation of women as eager and willing sexual objects. This article assesses the techniques and ways women are sexualised in South African hip-hop music videos, and how their representation attempts to create visual pleasure for those that consume these videos. Four critical elements are adopted from Laura Mulvey’s seminal theoretical discourse about the positioning of women in narrative cinema, to study the gender representation and sexual presentation of women in two popular South African hip-hop music videos. The analysis reveals that appealing to the male gaze, processes of objectification, gender division of labour and camera techniques are ways of presenting a sexualised spectacle of women for the visual pleasure of male characters and audiences of the videos. INTRODUCTION The representation of women in hip-hop music videos has been a focus of many studies (Miller- Young, 2007, Clark et al., 2016), and for many years studies have examined the representation of women as objects and props in music videos (Seidman, 1992, McClane-Bunn, 2010). The objectification of the female body has permeated social and cultural practices for decades; as MacKinnon (1989:149) states: “all women live in objectification the way fish live in water”. Since emerging in the mainstream music culture in the early 1980s, the music video format has generated a fair amount of scholarly attention, with research focusing especially on the harmful imagery found in many music videos and the potential effects of such imagery on adolescent viewers (Seidman, 1992; Sherman & Dominic, 1986; Smith & Boyson, 2002; Wallis, 2011). -

The Evolution of Masculinity and Mental Health Narratives in Rap Music
Man Down: The Evolution of Masculinity and Mental Health Narratives in Rap Music Rachel Hart,[1] Department of English, University of Bristol Abstract This article explores how one of the most typically hyper-masculine cultural arenas in Britain and America has evolved over the past 30 years, as rap artists decide to reject the stoicism of toxic masculinity in favour of promoting healthier conversations surrounding men’s mental health and associated coping mechanisms. Though rap has always been vocal about mental distress, its dominant narratives have evolved over the past 30 years to talk more specifically and positively about mental health issues. Over time rap has begun promoting therapy, medication, self-care and treatment, rather than self-medication via drugs and alcohol, or violence against the self or others. This is symbiotically informing and being informed by society’s changing ideas about masculinity and the construct of gender. In order to explore the evolution in discussions around men’s mental health from the 1990s to the present day, this article is split into three sections, each focusing on a different decade. I closely analyse the lyrics of one rap song in each chapter, which has been selected to represent rap’s general trends regarding discussions of mental health from that decade. I also briefly explore other songs that prove the decade’s trends. This article draws upon academic research as well as personal interviews undertaken with Solomon OB (2016’s National Poetry Slam champion), and Elias Williams, founder of MANDEM.com (an online media platform engaging with social issues and shining a light on young men of colour). -
