In this episode, I speak with Abs, Dean, and Chris, who host the 'Meet Us At The Bar' podcast. We discuss the problem and incidence within the UK, tackling anonymity online and some of the institutional aspects of this. We also look at the language and phraseology of racism that falls outside of historical patterns and makes it difficult to censor. We then examine silos of communication and thought such as social media followings and echo chambers. We look at mitigation methods to break ‘group think’, some of the powerful contributions that unity, community, and an open mind to collaboration can bring. Dean, Chris and Abs also give us some aspects of positivity in how we can tackle the problem of online racism together.
Please enjoy this interview with the insightful and engaging MUATB podcast hosts.
