19. #BlackoutTuesday : “En kvalitativ studie om studenters deltagande i sociala rörelser på sociala medier”
Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Medier och kommunikationSammanfattning : This study aims to examine participation in the digital campaign #BlackoutTuesday to gain an understanding of the campaign's impact on university students’ awareness and participation in Black Lives Matter. Based on this, the study has two research questions: How have the students experienced that the #BlackoutTuesday campaign has affected their awareness of Black lives matter, and, for what reasons did the students feel that they participated in #BlackoutTuesday? With the help of slacktivism, networked publics, collective and connective action as the study's theoretical framework, we hope to gain a good interpretation of the results. LÄS MER
