An examination of how nonprofessional archivists, especially media fans, practice cultural preservation on the Internet and how "digital cultural memory" differs radically from print-era archiving. The task of archiving was once entrusted only to museums, libraries, and other institutions that acted as repositories of culture in material form. But with the rise of digital networked media, a multitude of self-designated archivists--fans, pirates, hackers--have become practitioners of cultural preservation on the Internet. These nonprofessional archivists have democratized cultural memory, building freely accessible online archives of whatever content they consider suitable for digital preservation. In Rogue Archives, Abigail De Kosnik examines the practice of archiving in the transition from print to digital media, looking in particular at Internet fan fiction archives.De Kosnik explains that media users today regard all of mass culture as an archive, from which they can redeploy content for their own creations. Hence, "remix culture" and fan fiction are core genres of digital cultural production. De Kosnik explores, among other things, the anticanonical archiving styles of Internet preservationists; the volunteer labor of online archiving; how fan archives serve women and queer users as cultural resources; archivists' efforts to attract racially and sexually diverse content; and how digital archives adhere to the logics of performance more than the logics of print. She also considers the similarities and differences among free culture, free software, and fan communities, and uses digital humanities tools to quantify and visualize the size, user base, and rate of growth of several online fan archives.
Lili is the intimate story of a passionate woman poised against twentieth-century Paris. Coming of age prior to the First World War, Lili loses her first love and her brother in that conflagration. She finds herself reawakened by a former soldier. Their uneasy relationship, the caring for their disabled son, and the flowering of friendship with a beautiful Jewish woman leave her inner resources tested during the next war. Yet Lili emerges as her own woman, deeply reflective, spirited, and still fervent. Reading group guide included.
Since its launch in 2006, Twitter has served as a major platform for political performance, social justice activism, and large-scale public debates over race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, and nationality. It has empowered minoritarian groups to organize protests, articulate often-underrepresented perspectives, and form community. It has also spread hashtags that have been used to bully and silence women, people of color, and LGBTQ people.#identity is among the first scholarly books to address the positive and negative effects of Twitter on our contemporary world. Hailing from diverse scholarly fields, all contributors are affiliated with The Color of New Media, a scholarly collective based at the University of California, Berkeley. The Color of New Media explores the intersections of new media studies, critical race theory, gender and women’s studies, and postcolonial studies. The essays in #identity consider topics such as the social justice movements organized through #BlackLivesMatter, #Ferguson, and #SayHerName; the controversies around #WhyIStayed and #CancelColbert; Twitter use in India and Africa; the integration of hashtags such as #nohomo and #onfleek that have become part of everyday online vernacular; and other ways in which Twitter has been used by, for, and against women, people of color, LGBTQ, and Global South communities. Collectively, the essays in this volume offer a critically interdisciplinary view of how and why social media has been at the heart of US and global political discourse for over a decade.

In Abigail de Niverville's first poetry collection, she writes about heartbreak, family, homesickness, and self-discovery. Writing poems instead of keeping a diary over the last six years, these were the ones worth saving.
The beaches of Grand-Barachois had been Kat's summer home for years. There, she created her own world with her "summer friends," full of possibilities and free from expectation. But one summer, everything changed, and she ran from the life she'd created.Now seventeen and on the brink of attending college, Kat is full of regret. She's broken a friendship beyond repair, and she's dated possibly the worst person in the world. Six months after their break-up, he still haunts her nightmares. Confused and scared, she returns to Grand-Barachois to sort out her feelings.When she arrives, everything is different yet familiar. Some of her friends are right where she left them, while some are nowhere to be found. There are so many things they never got to do, so many words left unsaid.And then there's Tristan.He wasn't supposed to be there. He was just a guy from Kat's youth orchestra days. When the two meet again, they become fast friends. Tristan has a few ideas to make this summer the best one yet. Together, they build a master list of all the things Kat and her friends wanted to do but never could. It's finally time to live their wildest childhood dreams.But the past won't let Kat go. And while this may be a summer to remember, there's so much she wants to forget.
A collection of poetry written during the March 2020 lockdown in Toronto, and edited a year later... under another lockdown. Contemplative and varied, these are the thoughts one has before falling asleep.
Orson Lewis isn't good at anything. His grades are average, he's bad at sports, and he doesn't really like his friends anymore. Compared to his older sister Emerson, he's a total failure. And it doesn't help he's set to attend the same high school as her in the fall. This summer is his last chance to figure himself out.When Liam Beaulieu moves across the street, it feels like a sign. Liam is outgoing, encouraging, and unafraid-everything Orson struggles to be. Through Liam's friendship, Orson dreams this could be the key to unlocking who he truly is. But life has a way of changing fast. By the time school starts, Orson and Liam aren't as close as they were, his friendship group is slowly breaking apart, and his ex-best friend Tyler decides to enter his life again. In the year that follows, Orson must find a way to navigate all of life's changes... without losing himself in the process.
