Understanding Hate Speech Patterns With #TrackerBenci

The prevalence of hate speech in public discourse, amplified by social media, is a problem multicultural societies the world over are grappling with.

We discuss the aims of the project and the challenges of monitoring hate speech online. Image credit: Shutterstock.com
