This article analyses the project "REASON - REAct in the Struggle against ONline hate speech", which aims to counter online hate speech from a methodological point of view, drawing attention to the training actions of the Research Center on Intercultural Relations of the Catholic University of the Sacred Heart. The project involves young activists that belong to targeted groups (Jews, Roma and Sinti, Muslims), who focus on hate speech detection, counter-narratives and alternative narratives. In the first part of the article, the concept of “hate online” is discussed as “ambiguous yet useful” and it is presented a proposal that categorizes the forms of Antisemitism, Antigypsyism and Islamophobia. In the second part of the paper, the training workshops carried out with young people from targeted groups are analyzed as a proposal for participation and digital activism and are divided into different phases: I) the training on all the forms of hate speech and their validation carried out with the activists; II) the collection of data and the analysis of case studies; III) the design of online hate speech counter-narrative and alternative narration; IIII) the production of social web videos.
L’articolo analizza il progetto “REASON – REAct in the Struggle against ONline hate speech” di contrasto all’odio online da un punto di vista metodologico, con particolare riferimento alle azioni formative del Centro di Ricerca sulle Relazioni Interculturali dell’Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore di Milano. Il focus è sulla detection, la contronarrazione e le narrazioni alternative attraverso il coinvolgimento di giovani attivisti appartenenti ai gruppi eletti a bersaglio (ebrei, rom e sinti, musulmani). Nella prima parte dell’articolo, si discute il concetto di “odio online” come categoria ambigua ma utile al tempo stesso, quindi si presenta una proposta di categorizzazione delle forme antisemitismo, antiziganismo e islamofobia. Nella seconda parte, si analizzano come proposta di partecipazione e di attivismo digitale le fasi che hanno caratterizzato i laboratori formativi svolti con i giovani dei gruppi potenzialmente eletti a bersaglio: la formazione sulle forme di odio e la loro validazione con gli attivisti, il reperimento e l’analisi di casi, la progettazione di risposte di contronarrazione e narrazione alternativa, la realizzazione di video per il web sociale.

Abstract
This article analyses the project "REASON - REAct in the Struggle against ONline hate speech", which aims to counter online hate speech from a methodological point of view, drawing attention to the training actions of the Research Center on Intercultural Relations of the Catholic University of the Sacred Heart. The project involves young activists that belong to targeted groups (Jews, Roma and Sinti, Muslims), who focus on hate speech detection, counter-narratives and alternative narratives. In the first part of the article, the concept of “hate online” is discussed as “ambiguous yet useful” and it is presented a proposal that categorizes the forms of Antisemitism, Antigypsyism and Islamophobia. In the second part of the paper, the training workshops carried out with young people from targeted groups are analyzed as a proposal for participation and digital activism and are divided into different phases: I) the training on all the forms of hate speech and their validation carried out with the activists; II) the collection of data and the analysis of case studies; III) the design of online hate speech counter-narrative and alternative narration; IIII) the production of social web videos.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
