May 5: Rosa Lund and Özlem Cekic on online hate

Never before has social media been so full of hateful messages as it is now. Almost every 20th comment is a verbal attack – something that not only causes fear in the recipient, but also threatens open and respectful public debate.

The young prejudice breakers at Brobyggerne are inviting people to a Dialogue Coffee on May 5 because they believe it is important to put an end to the hateful tone on the internet and create an online culture where we treat each other with respect despite prejudices and differences.

Come and meet Rosa Lund, spokesperson for gender equality for the Red-Green Alliance and the politician in Denmark who receives the most hate on Facebook. In a candid conversation with Özlem Cekic, she shares what it's like to be in the middle of a storm of online hate and what it does to you as a person.

To raise awareness about hate crimes and discrimination online, Oliver Anton Lunow Nielsen from Amnesty International Denmark will give an expert presentation.
