“The world, immediately, is harsher on women. And I think online is just another whole space of that where it’s amplified.”
Radio personality Lana Cochrane-Searle (Ngāti Kurī, Te Rarawa, Croatia) gets sent a lot of cruel comments online about her appearance, as a wāhine Māori, and as a member of the rainbow community.
But she doesn’t let the trolls get to her, and through it all, she empowers other women to stand tall, be proud of who they are, and use their voices.
