Hi Roxanne, Jonathan Rosa & Yarimar Bonilla's 2015 article in American Ethnologist is a good resource for thinking about hashtags and online activism (and how to study them): #Ferguson: Digital protest, hashtag ethnography, and the racial politics of social media in the United States Kendra Calhoun, M.A. Graduate Student Department of Linguistics University of California, Santa Barbara ________________________________ From: Air-L <air-l-bounces@listserv.aoir.org> on behalf of Marcotte, Roxanne <marcotte.roxanne@uqam.ca> Sent: Wednesday, February 22, 2017 3:45:46 PM To: 'air-l@listserv.aoir.org' Subject: Re: [Air-L] Air-L Digest, Vol 151, Issue 26 Dear list members, I have a colleague whose graduate student is writing an MA thesis looking at hashtags and Muslim activism after the January 2015 attacks in Paris. Are there "essential" readings on hashtags and activism he needs to read? Is there anything of substance on hashtags and Muslim activism that also need to be consulted? Many thanks for any leads that I'll pass on.
