摘要

将截图作为一种微小但强大的数字监控工具，本案例研究探讨了截图在在线社会正义运动中的应用，特别是那些致力于识别和根除系统性种族主义的运动。我们以一个以反种族主义为重点的Twitter账户为例进行分析，研究了社会正义倡导者如何使用截图“从下面观看”。对2019年6月至2020年6月期间发布在种族主义监督账户(@RacismDog)上的228张截图进行的实证定性分析显示，截图提供了一种捕捉和呼吁关注网络空间不公正现象的手段。为用户提供了选择和构建屏幕上显示内容的能力，截图还允许用户强调种族主义评论的部分内容，合并信息以支持论点，并列信息以突出修辞矛盾，偶尔给那些从事在线激进主义的人带来轻浮。我们讨论了截图作为一种有效的、视觉上有说服力的在线监控工具。

Capturing Injustice: The Screenshot as a Tool for Sousveillance

Abstract Framing the screenshot as a tiny-but-mighty tool for digital sousveillance, this case study explores the use of screenshots in online social justice movements, specifically those dedicated to identifying and eradicating systemic racism. Using one antiracism-focused Twitter account as a single case for analysis, we examined how social justice advocates may use the screenshot to “watch from below.” Grounded theory qualitative analysis of 228 screenshots posted to the Racism Watchdog account (@RacismDog) between June 2019 and June 2020 revealed that screenshots offer a means to capture and call attention to injustices in online spaces. Equipping users with the ability to select and frame content appearing onscreen, screenshots also allow users to emphasize portions of racist comments, incorporate information to support an argument, juxtapose bits of information to highlight rhetorical contradictions, and occasionally to bring levity to those engaged in online activism. We discuss the screenshot as an effective, visually persuasive tool in online sousveillance.

期刊介绍： Culture, ethnicity, and gender influence multicultural organizations, mass media portrayals, interpersonal interaction, development campaigns, and rhetoric. Dealing with these issues, The Howard Journal of Communications, is a quarterly that examines ethnicity, gender, and culture as domestic and international communication concerns. No other scholarly journal focuses exclusively on cultural issues in communication research. Moreover, few communication journals employ such a wide variety of methodologies. Since issues of multiculturalism, multiethnicity and gender often call forth messages from persons who otherwise would be silenced, traditional methods of inquiry are supplemented by post-positivist inquiry to give voice to those who otherwise might not be heard.
