LGBTQI Digital Media Activism and Counter-Hate Speech in Italy cover

LGBTQI Digital Media Activism and Counter-Hate Speech inItaly analyzes the organizational communication practices of Italian LGBTQI activists.

The book investigates digital media activism practices, and how, through artifacts of political engagement, activists are championing social change through non-violent communications. The author also interrogates whether legal means are enough to combat hate and promote a culture of human rights.

This book is an essential read for students and scholars interested in LGBTQ rights and activism.

"An inspiring book and a needed roadmap for LGBTQI activists in Italy to become more aware of each other's efforts, strengthen networks, and spearhead joint initiatives for the protection and promotion of human and civil rights."

- Lorenza Parisi, Associate Professor in Sociology of Culture and Communication, Link Campus University, Rome, Italy

"This book offers powerful insights into how LGBTQI human rights in Italy are directly impacted by digital media and how the latter can be leveraged for positive change."

- Antonio López, Associate Professor of Communications and Media Studies, John Cabot University, Rome, Italy
