This book examines Zoombombing, the racist harassment and hate
speech on Zoom. While most accounts refer to Zoombombing as simply
a new style or practice of online trolling and harassment in the
wake of increased videoconferencing since the outbreak of COVID-19,
this volume examines it as a specifically racialized and gendered
phenomenon that targets Black people and communities with
racialized and gendered harassment. Racist Zoombombing brings
together histories of online racism and algorithmic warfare with
in-depth interviews by Black users on their experiences. The book
explains how Zoombombing is a form of racial violence, interrogates
our ideas about online space and community, and challenges our
notions of on and off line distinction between racial harassment of
Black people and communities. A vital resource for media, culture,
and communication students and scholars that are interested in
race, gender, digital media, and digital culture.
