The collection of essays outlines how feminists employ a variety of online platforms, practices, and tools to create spaces of solidarity and to articulate a critical politics that refuses popular forms of individual, consumerist, white feminist empowerment in favor of collective, tangible action. Including scholars and activists from a wide range of disciplinary perspectives, these essays help to catalog the ways in which feminists are organizing online to mobilize different feminist, queer, trans, disability, reproductive justice, and racial equality movements. Together, these perspectives offer a comprehensive overview of how feminists are employing the tools of the internet for political change. Grounded in intersectional feminism––a perspective that attends to the interrelatedness of power and oppression based on race, class, gender, ability, sexuality, and other identities––this book gathers provocations, analyses, creative explorations, theorizations, and case studies of networked feminist activist practices. In doing so, this collection archives important work already done within feminist digital cultures and acts as a vital blueprint for future feminist action.

We frequently hear calls for more intersectional feminist work in digital media studies, and Networked Feminisms is a masterclass is how to do that. A rich collection of polyvocal contributions, this book provides both a range of useful concepts for exploring networked communication from a feminist lens as well as practical methodological insights into the study of online communities and hashtag publics. Highly self-reflexive and resistant to safe analysis and simple conclusions, the chapters in this book rigorously and creatively explore online activism addressing exclusions based on race, indigeneity, gender identity, sexuality, ability, and caste.
