The Importance of Supporting Teenagers

Laura Bates, founder of the Everyday Sexism Project and author of Men Who Hate Women and Fix the System, Not Women, joins Offline to shed light on one of the darkest corners of the internet: the manosphere.

Laura describes how she went undercover to infiltrate these platforms, and what she learned about protecting men and boys from radicalization.
