Digital media and digital cultures created, for, about, or by queer and transgender people, activists, educators, and artists who work with or research ways to use digital means and measures to combat different forms of oppression, and explore self-expression and identity, are the focus of this collection. Researchers, activists, and academics whose diverse international experiences as LGBTQ advocates and community workers have provided them with unique access and insights into this traditionally marginalized populace and their use of social media and digital technology have contributed to the collection.

The collection examines questions of inclusion and, perhaps, more importantly, exclusions of certain voices and the different ways, age, race, class, and disability intersect in specific social, cultural, and global contexts throughout. It encourages dialogue and investigation of the transformative potential of digital activism and platforms from a global perspective.
