In this episode, Kelly, a student activist from Brown University, hosts Lin, a social media influencer known for addressing sexual harassment in the international student community. Lin began documenting these incidents in 2017 and his exposes have since garnered millions of views. For the first time, Lin shares his article writing process, highlighting the rise in unreported harassment cases among international students and how perpetrators often evade legal consequences. He asserts his responsibility as an influencer to amplify survivors' voices, critiquing the trend of PDFs among students as a double-edged sword—providing a platform for survivors but also fueling gossip. Lin advocates for thorough cross-examination and prioritizing survivors' consent in his writing.
