Show notes for Episode 32

Here are the show notes for Episode 32, in which Lisa, Dan and Jill talk to Kate Barber from Cardiff University about:

Forensic linguistics

Researching discourse in online communities using corpora

Discourse analysis of misogyny in the manosphere and far-right online communities

Challenging and ‘inoculating’ against these narratives

***Many of the themes - misogyny, sexual violence and racism - and potentially some of the language, that we’ll be discussing in this interview will be disturbing and upsetting so please be aware that this might not be suitable for all listeners***
