#HashtagActivism: Networks of Race and Gender JusticeHow marginalized groups use Twitter to advance counter narratives, preempt political spin, and build diverse networks of dissent. The power of hashtag activism became clear in 2011, when #IranElection served as an organizing tool for Iranians protesting a disputed election and offered a global audience a front row seat to a nascent revolution.

How marginalized groups use Twitter to advance counter-narratives, preempt political spin, and build diverse networks of dissent.

The power of hashtag activism became clear in 2011, when #IranElection served as an organizing tool for Iranians protesting a disputed election and offered a global audience a front-row seat to a nascent revolution. Since then, activists have used a variety of hashtags, including #JusticeForTrayvon, #BlackLivesMatter, #YesAllWomen, and #MeToo to advocate, mobilize, and communicate. In this book, Sarah Jackson, Moya Bailey, and Brooke Foucault Welles explore how and why Twitter has become an important platform for historically disenfranchised populations, including Black Americans, women, and transgender people. They show how marginalized groups, long excluded from elite media spaces, have used Twitter hashtags to advance counternarratives, preempt political spin, and build diverse networks of dissent.

The authors describe how such hashtags as #MeToo, #SurvivorPrivilege, and #WhyIStayed have challenged the conventional understanding of gendered violence; examine the voices and narratives of Black feminism enabled by #FastTailedGirls, #YouOKSis, and #SayHerName; and explore the creation and use of #GirlsLikeUs, a network of transgender women. They investigate the digital signatures of the "new civil rights movement"--the online activism, storytelling, and strategy-building that set the stage for #BlackLivesMatter--and recount the spread of racial justice hashtags after the killing of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, and other high-profile incidents of killings by police. Finally, they consider hashtag created by allies, including #AllMenCan and #CrimingWhileWhite.

Great in my trunk

Was almost enough to do my full trunk on my 2012 civic si. I have exhaust and a subwoofer that were making a lot of rattles and drones in the trunk. Took everything out and covered about 70% of everything including the wheel wells and the rear deck support, even put some under my spoiler and behind my license plate. Now, quieter ride and no vibration from the trunk inside OR outside the car even with bass cranked up. This is a great product and I would definitely recommend.

Does the job well
Style: 37.1 sqft(34 pcs), Material Type: Aluminum 197 mil
Really nice quality. There are strings woven into the top along the foil. Easy to work with. The backing peels off smooth and usually in one piece. Great value
