Social media has bridged distance, time, and nation states to mobilize Indigenous peoples to build coalitions across the globe and to stand in solidarity with one another. These movements have succeeded and gained momentum and traction precisely because of the strategic use of social media. Social media--Twitter and Facebook in particular--has also served as a platform for fostering health, well-being, and resilience, recognizing Indigenous strength and talent, and sustaining and transforming cultural practices when great distances divide members of the same community. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Including a range of international indigenous voices from the US, Canada, Australia, Aotearoa (New Zealand) and Africa, the book takes an interdisciplinary approach, bridging Indigenous studies, media studies, and social justice studies. Including examples like Idle No More in Canada, Australian Recognise , and social media campaigns to maintain Maori language, \u003ci\u003eIndigenous Peoples Rise Up\u003c\/i\u003e serves as one of the first studies of Indigenous social media use and activism. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bronwyn Carlson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1978808771\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781978808775\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rutgers University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/13\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 260\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.84lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.98h x 5.98w x 0.71d","brand":"Bronwyn Carlson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44051849412863,"sku":"9781978808775","price":32.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_85e64add-a3ac-4c1a-b675-0f1807d9929a.jpg?v=1685015537","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/indigenous-peoples-rise-up-bronwyn-carlson-9781978808775","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
