Abstract

The advent of social media has revolutionized feminism, transforming it from a grassroots movement into a global phenomenon. With an emphasis on how digital platforms have changed feminist activity, discourse, and intersectionality, this paper examines the connections between social media and feminism. It explores how social media might help global feminist solidarity, elevate underrepresented perspectives, and enable real-time reactions to sociopolitical crises.The term "digital feminism" describes the incorporation of feminist activity and ideas online, particularly on social media sites like Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, and Twitter. These platforms have been essential in changing the conversation around feminism, broadening its audience, and offering fresh approaches to discussing feminist concepts. Drawing upon English literature, it examines how foundational feminist ideas have transitioned into digital formats, sustaining and evolving feminist ideologies. Furthermore, the paper evaluates the influence of social media on public perceptions of feminism, highlighting both its potential for inclusivity and the challenges of performative activism. By analysing the synergy between literary feminist narratives and digital activism, this study seeks to demonstrate the enduring relevance of feminist principles in the digital age.
