This is the first episode in a series that looks at the prevalence of online abuse and the types of abuse people experience online. This week we are focusing on the LGBT community. Linda is joined by Aoife Martin, a Trans woman and activist who talks about her experiences of Transphobia and the attempts to import Transphobia around gender Self ID in Ireland from the UK. It's really important to understand the types of people who are being subjected to abuse online and what we need to do to be better allies and take action to protect people, especially those in marginalised communities.
