Hello friends, I've never shared a paper here before, but as an early career sociologists, I'd like to share two articles about social movements I recently published which I think may be of interest to some people. First is an article in *Social Movement Studies* examining how political opportunities and threats are perceived and interpreted by activists in the digital environment of data. This was intended to be part of a special issue on "Contentious Data Politics". You can read a short summary my blog <https://jaredmwr.wordpress.com/2022/10/01/new-article-the-future-of-the-internet-hangs-in-the-balance/> or see a preprint on ResearchGate <https://www.researchgate.net/publication/363699731_The_future_of_the_internet_hangs_in_the_balance_the_perception_and_framing_of_political_opportunity_and_threat_in_the_contentious_politics_of_data> : - "The Future of the Internet Hangs in the Balance": The Perception and Framing of Political Opportunity and Threat in the Contentious Politics of Data <https://doi.org/10.1080/14742837.2022.2123313> Second is an article in *Contention* which, illustrated by a network analysis of tweets from our selected case, theorizes how a form of solidarity may manifest in fleeting, unilateral moments between two groups of activists, and its implications both good and bad. You can also read more about it on my blog <https://jaredmwr.wordpress.com/2022/11/19/new-journal-article-drive-by-solidarity/> or find a preprint here <https://www.researchgate.net/publication/365387722_Drive-By_Solidarity_Conceptualizing_the_Temporal_Relationship_between_BlackLivesMatter_and_Anonymous's_OpKKK> : - Drive-By Solidarity: Conceptualizing the Temporal Relationship between #BlackLivesMatter and Anonymous's #OpKKK <https://doi.org/10.3167/cont.2022.100203> I hope you enjoy my (and my colleagues') work. Feel free to contact me if you'd like to learn more, provide feedback, talk about new ideas, or just chat. Thanks! P.S. I'm very grateful for this community. I've been following for a few years and I've discovered so much through all of you. I know some have migrated to Mastodon already, but I hope this email list will stay alive too.
