Under hashtags such as #BlackLivesMatter, #MeToo to the Arab Spring and the Occupy movements, digital social activision mobilized people and movements like almost never before. In #HashtagActivism: Networked Counterpublics in the Digital Age the authors examine how and why Twitter hashtags have become an important platform for historically disenfranchised populations to advance counter narratives and advocate for social change. We contend that members of these marginalized groups, in the tradition of counterpublics, are using Twitter hashtags to build diverse networks of dissent and shape the cultural and political knowledge fundamental to contemporary identity-based social movements. Given shifting understandings and ongoing conversations about the role of social media in 21st century democracy, and considering recent high-profile public debates about racial violence, feminist inclusivity, and sexual identity, #Hashtag Activism will provide readers with a model of how to study political identity and meaning-making processes within digital spaces while highlighting compelling cases of counterpublic activism and dissent"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Hashtags (Metadata) 650 0 $a Social media. 700 1 $a Bailey, Moya, $e author. 700 1 $a Welles, Brooke Foucault, $e author. 941 $a 4 952 $l PQAX094 $d 20231214030029.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20231103011541.0 952 $l PNAX964 $d 20220209011134.0 952 $l OPAX566 $d 20220128010249.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=593CEB6C74A711EA8EBE956E97128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
