In a moment marked by transnational gender, climate, health, and human rights crises, the question of how to build feminist solidarities across difference has never been more urgent. This book amplifies the rich genealogies and ongoing conversations that shape studies of transnational feminist rhetorics (TFR), asking what solidarity can mean and do under contemporary global conditions.With case studies from Africa, South Asia, China, Latin America, and Australia, among others, this collection theorizes the three interdisciplinary terms that define the subfield—transnational, feminist, and rhetorical—in order to reimagine the affordances and limitations of TFR for solidarity-building. The volume features a wide range of essays—on topics such as Ghanaian bead practices, testimonio as an embodied Latinx methodology, and protests against Chinese zero-COVID policies—that examine the stories, histories, and embodied experiences of activists organizing across transnational feminist networks. Through careful attention to everyday praxis, literacies, and survival strategies, the contributors showcase how people working across geopolitical scales confront local oppression with global structural origins and effects. Offering new methodologies and a reconfiguration of disciplinary boundaries, the volume pushes the field of TFR toward imagining and enacting critical solidarities across difference.In addition to the editors, the contributors to this volume include Mavis Boatemaa Beckson, Chen Chen, Yuanfang Dai, Rebecca Dingo, Lisa Emerson, Izzy Fox, Estève Giraud, Tarez Samra Graban, Nancy Henaku, Kimberly Jenerette, Theresa A. Kulbaga, Elenore Long, Rachel Riedner, Ana Roncero-Bellido, Eileen E. Schell, Sanjay Sharma, Melissa Stone, Susan E. Thomas, and Jennifer Wingard.

A groundbreaking rhetorical framework for the study of transnational digital activismWhat does it mean when we call a movement "global"? How can we engage with digital activism without being "slacktivists"? In Activist Literacies, Jennifer Nish responds to these questions and a larger problem in contemporary public discourse: many discussions and analyses of digital and transnational activism rely on inaccurate language and inadequate frameworks. Drawing on transnational feminist theory and rhetorical analysis, Nish formulates a robust set of tools for nuanced engagement with activist rhetorics.Nish applies her literacies of positionality, orientation, and circulation to case studies that highlight grassroots activism, well-resourced nonprofits, and a decentralized social media challenge; in so doing, she illustrates the complex power dynamics at work in each scenario and demonstrates how activist literacies can be used to understand and engage with efforts to contribute to social change. Written in an accessible, engaging style, Activist Literacies invites scholars, students, and activists to read activist rhetoric that engages with "global" concerns and circulates transnationally via social media.
