spir-10492	Lewis, Kelly Marie	MEDIATED DEATH AND DIGITAL MARTYRDOM: ETHICAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR VISUAL SOCIAL MEDIA RESEARCHERS	2018.0	4	.pdf	application/pdf	1213	50	35	This ethical imperative is of particular importance for visual social media research that extends beyond a Western context and considers the cross-cultural, transnational dimensions of memetic protest. I argue a new form of martyrdom has emerged post the 2010-11 Egyptian uprisings: one that is digitally mediated by individuals through the affordances of visual social media and digital technologies; has given rise to new performative rituals of witnessing and commemoration; offers new possibilities for popular political participation and expression; and challenges the dominant ways of doing politics online.	cache/spir-10492.pdf	txt/spir-10492.txt
