Marco P Ndlovu

My name is Marco, I am from Pietermaritzburg, South Africa. I am a 39-year-old black lesbian born into a family of eight, of whom only five survived. Gender violence has been so much a part of my life that at times I wonder if there is such a thing as a life free of violence. As a lesbian, hate, violence and misogyny follow me wherever I go. I became pregnant as a result of being raped by a man I believed to be a friend.
