Abstract

This article explores cyberfeminist participation, with a focus on the 8M movement, the most recent international feminist strike front, which repoliticizes the feminist movements of this century (Arruzza et al., 2019), and is characterized as a mobilization that is a consequence of the association between the online and the street (Zimmerman, 2017). To better understand the construction of intersectional feminism through digital activism, we performed a netnographic analysis of the Instagram profile of the Rede 8 de Março, which organizes the strike in Portugal, during the month of March 2021 — still in pandemic period — evidencing the use of hybridity as a tool for construction and mobilization. After the analysis, semi-structured interviews were carried out with participants of the collective that organizes the strike. The main results reveal the recurrence of themes around misogyny violence and domestic work and show the importance of hybrid feminist activism in the construction of a transnational movement.

Fair use of a copyrighted work, for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use), scholarship, or research, is not an infringement of copyright. In determining whether the use made of a work in any particular case is a fair use the factors to be considered shall include: 1. the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes; 2. the nature of the copyrighted work; 3. the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; & 4. the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work. The fact that a work is unpublished shall not itself bar a finding of fair use if such finding is made upon consideration of all the above factors. In accord with these provisions, the OBS journal believes in the vigorous assertion and defense of Fair Use by scholars engaged in academic research, teaching and non-commercial publishing. Thus, we view the inclusion of “quotations” from existing print, visual, audio and audio-visual texts to be appropriate examples of Fair Use, as are reproductions of visual images for the purpose of scholarly analysis. We encourage authors to obtain appropriate permissions to use materials originally produced by others, but do not require such permissions as long as the usage of such materials falls within the boundaries of Fair Use.
