Pass list from an onclick to jquery method

Hi All

I am trying to pass a c# list parameter using an onclick to a jquery method. It refuses to go to the method I am assuming its the  brackets [] that causes that and the string inside the list have slashes & other characters. A string inside the list might look like this; "*abc/def-"

Please assist

function nextSlide(question) {
    debugger;
    var myList = JSON.parse(question);
   
}
