Meet the non-profit art group trying to end violence against women in Mozambique. By Rebecca Cooke.
On the fringes of FEIMA arts market in Mozambique’s capital, Maputo, people crowd around as a man yells angrily and punches the man standing next to him, who is wearing a skirt.
The onlookers do not intervene. Instead, they let out a collective laugh. The man in the skirt bows down to his attacker, whimpering melodramatically and falling to his knees.
