According to UN statistics a third of women across the world experience sexual or physical violence at least once in their life. The rates of violence against women and girls are astonishing; in the UK a woman is killed by a man once every three days. So how do we tackle this?
Jackson Katz is an educator and anti-sexism activist. He has spent his career talking to men in positions of influence - whether that’s managers, sports coaches, fathers or uncles - about how they can use their power to help end misogynist views. In his most recent book, ‘Every Man’, he reframes violence against women as a men’s issue rather than a women’s, and talks about how shifting the focus changes the way we challenge the problem.
In this episode Jackson talks to Stephanie about the current climate of misogyny in the online world, and how we equip men with the tools to challenge the influence that it's having on future generations of boys.
