Synopsis
Immigrant communities facing displacement have increasingly turned to social media as a platform to share their testimonies, connect to their communities, and build new support networks. Due to existing structural inequities, women face unique challenges, such as discrimination and violence, human trafficking, economic deprivation, and conflicting cultural norms. This is particularly true for immigrant and refugee women from the Global South to Europe, North America, and Australia. In this context, social media and digital technologies have increasingly served as powerful platforms for social justice and community building by providing marginalized groups with a venue to share testimonies and connect with their community of origin and other groups facing similar challenges. In these virtual communities, immigrant and refugee women can also find a collective voice to mobilize social and political activism on issues such as immigration policies, access to healthcare, challenges of motherhood, and gender-based violence. Digital Narratives of Trauma Among Immigrant and Refugee Women explores contemporary issues, by examining how narratives of resistance and survival in digital spaces illuminate the interconnectedness of migration, womanhood, displacement, and trauma within the fabric of human experience. It introduces the role of social media and digital testimonies in bringing about social change for historically marginalized women. Covering topics such as affective labor, intersectionality, and social justice, this book is an excellent resource for non-governmental organizational leaders, activists, federal agents, state agents, sociologists, social workers, professionals, researchers, scholars, academicians, and more.
