"Cults & Conspiracies" with Dr. Allison Meek

Allison Meek is a history professor at Kings University College, University of Western Ontario. We discuss the history of conspiratorial thinking, how misinformation manifest itself online, the role social media has on amplifying polarization on these topics, and strategies for effectively dealing with individuals who are vulnerable to these beliefs. It's a fascinating conversation, and one I hope you find valuable as we all learn how to navigate this world of increasing complexity together.
