In this episode, Jess Miles speaks with Luke Billingham and Keir Irwin-Rogers, authors of Against Youth Violence, about a new way of making sense of this issue by putting it in the context of social harm.
They discuss the extent of the violence affecting children and young people, how harmful the way it is reported and talked about can be, and how we should be talking to young people about violence.
