2. Drawing the Faces of “Perpetual Foreigners”: A Multimodal Narrative Analysis of #StopAsianHate on Instagram. https://t.co/b64GioZOU4

[Weiyu Zhang @WeiyuZ]

This is the last piece of the 2026 #HashtagActivism trilogy. The 3 publications convey one message: not all hashtag movements are equal. The narrative frames, actor networks, and the interaction between them shape how a hashtag movement works. Links to the other two in replies.

[The CivicTech Lab @CivictechL]

What drives #OnlineMobilization — messages or networks? Our study shows it’s both. Personal frames spark engagement but weaken in closed networks, while collective frames gain strength in tightly connected ones. https://t.co/fln0MiiHy4
