Tapiwa grew up in Zimbabwe, watching his father manipulate and control his mother. Wondering why women and men are not equals, he joined a gender club while in secondary school and eventually became an activist. Tapiwa is happy that over the years his father has changed and begun to speak out against gender violence and discrimination.
