*The blurb:*

This edited collection explores the meaning of feminism in the 
contemporary moment, which is constituted primarily by action but also 
uncertainty. The book focuses on feminist modes of activism, as well as 
media and cultural representation to ask questions about organising, 
representing and articulating feminist politics. In particular it 
tackles the intersections between media technologies and gendered 
identities, with contributions that cover topics such as twerking, 
trigger warnings, and trans identities. This volume directly addresses 
topical issues in feminism and is a valuable asset to scholars of 
gender, media and sexuality studies.
