This article reviews scholarship on youth and young adult activism in digital spaces, as young users of participatory media sites are engaging in political, civic, social, or cultural action and advocacy online to create social change. The authors argue that youth’s digital activism serves as a central mechanism to disrupt inequality, and that education research should focus on these youth practices, particularly by young people from marginalized communities or identities, in order to provide important counter-narratives to predominant stories circulating about “at-risk”or disaffected youth. The article examines young people’s use of online tools for organizing toward social change across three lines of inquiry—young people’s cultural and political uses of participatory tools and spaces online, new forms of youth civic engagement and activism, and adult-supported programs and spaces facilitating youth activism. In centering the review on youth digital activism, the authors suggest that education researchers can learn from youth themselves about how to disrupt educational inequalities, resulting in a more humanizing stance for education research that takes into fuller account the human potential of all youth, beyond school walls.

通过青年数字行动主义打破教育不平等

本文回顾了关于数字空间中青年和青年激进主义的学术研究,因为参与式媒体网站的年轻用户正在参与政治、公民、社会或文化行动以及在线倡导以创造社会变革。作者认为,青年的数字激进主义是打破不平等的核心机制,教育研究应侧重于这些青年实践,尤其是来自边缘化社区或身份的年轻人的实践,以便为流传的主流故事提供重要的反叙述。 “处于危险中”或心怀不满的青年。这篇文章从三个方面探讨了年轻人使用在线工具来组织社会变革的情况——年轻人对参与性工具和在线空间的文化和政治使用、青年公民参与和激进主义的新形式、以及成人支持的促进青年激进主义的计划和空间。在围绕青年数字行动主义的评论中,作者建议教育研究人员可以向青年自己学习如何打破教育不平等,从而为教育研究采取更人性化的立场,更充分地考虑到所有青年的人类潜力,超越学校墙壁。
