数字行动主义，即以数字技术为媒介的政治行动主义，为边缘化群体提供了增加能见度和政治权力的希望。然而，除了少数例外，如黑人的生命也是如此。本文提供了理论，概念的批判性研究，探讨为什么成功的数字行动主义可能逃避边缘化群体。我们要问，为什么许多边缘化群体无法利用数字行动主义的力量。我们认为，边缘化群体更多地依赖智能手机上网可能是问题的核心。
Digital activism, political activism mediated by digital technologies, offers the promise of increased visibility and political power for marginalized groups. Yet, this has not been the case outside of a few exceptions such as Black Lives Matter. This paper offers theoretical, conceptual critical research that explores why successful digital activism may elude marginalized groups. We ask why many marginalized groups have been unable to harness the power of digital activism. We suggest that greater reliance on smartphones for internet access in marginalized groups may be at the heart of the problem.
