Networked Feminism tells the story of how activists have used media
to reconfigure what feminist politics and organizing look like in
the United States. Drawing on years spent participating in
grassroots communities and observing viral campaigns, Rosemary
Clark-Parsons argues that feminists engage in a do-it-ourselves
feminism characterized by the use of everyday media technologies.
Faced with an electoral system and a history of collective
organizing that have failed to address complex systems of
oppression, do-it-ourselves feminists do not rely on political
organizations, institutions, or authorities. Instead, they use
digital networks to build movements that reflect their values and
meet the challenges of the current moment, all the while juggling
the advantages and limitations of their media tools. Through its
practitioner-centered approach, this book sheds light on feminist
media activists' shared struggles and best practices at a time when
collective organizing for social justice has become more important
than ever.
