This cultural history seeks to deepen and contextualize knowledge about digital activist journalism by training the lens of social movement theory back on the nearly forgotten role of eight twentieth-century American social justice journals in effecting significant social change. The book deliberately conflates \"social movement media\" with newer and broader conceptions of \"social justice journalism\" to highlight changing definitions of journalism in the digital era.
