Laura Bates
From sadist cruelty to the machosphere
Debate
Feminist writer Laura Bates, creator of the website Everyday Sexism Project, speaks with the collective Proyecto UNA about the new forms of misogyny in the digital sphere.
Nowadays, misogyny occupies new digital spaces in what is known as the “machosphere” or “manosphere”, which is to say online domains of blogs, forums, videos, and social networks that are characterised by hate speech towards women, promotion of gender violence and denial of equality of rights. Laura Bates, author of Men Who Hate Women, will join the Proyecto UNA collective to explore the new misogyny, an enormous hotbed of today’s worldwide extremism.
Moderators: Proyecto UNA
Participants: Laura Bates
