Man Up Campaign: July 21, 2010

This video was produced in kind by Spencer Clinton Parker (www.spencerclintonparker.com) Along with several Man Up Delegates the video features renowned singer and humanitarian Yvonne Chaka Chaka. Known as the "Princess of Africa," she recently put issues affecting women and girls firmly on the agenda at Man Up Campaign's Young Leaders Summit in Johannesburg, South Africa, as well as at the International AIDS Conference in Vienna. Man Up Campaign is committed to a 'Zero Tolerance Campaign' (as laid out by The Global AIDS Alliance) to stop violence against women and girls and HIV/AIDS.

I should do something? Okay, for starters, I'm calling BS on hate mongers like you, monalisab, and the bigots behind the "Man Up" campaign.

@booradley451 Also, efforts to stop FGM by outside organizations have actually given the practice greater staying power because it turned FGM into a symbol for ethnic independence. If you think that FGM and honor killings should end, then YOU need "man up" and do something more helpful than criticizing others' attempts to stop violence against women.

@booradley451 For the record, this organization was started by a man who wanted to create a better world for his young daughter, so I am confused as to why you believe this campaign is made up of pathetic, hateful feminists when the campaign clearly puts the emphasis on men because it was created by a man.

Is "Man Up" actually doing anything about routine Female Genital Mutilation and Honor Killings in Muslim cultures, or just picking on the U.S., Canada, and Australia - the greatest beacons of equality and tolerance in the world? Pathetic, hateful feminists. Nobody's buying it (over 800 views!).
