People & Power - Ndiyindoda: I am a man is about circumcision among the Xhosa of the Eastern Cape Province in South Africa.
Video
Circumcision rituals in South Africa — the ceremonial transition to manhood in the Xhosa society — are resulting in the mutilation and death of hundreds of young men each year. People & Power investigates the tragic consequences.
Includes testimonials of a mother who lost her son to circumcision ritual, and a man who lost his penis.
