ABSTRACT
This chapter examines the feminist nature of social media and has become known as online feminist revolution. It explores the ways that feminist scholars, students, religious leaders, activists, community members are using social media as a powerful mode of communicating expanded borders in the field of feminism and religion. The digital world has expanded borders for women and has offered tools for liberation in the form of blogging and other social media platforms, such as Twitter, Facebook. As Martin and Valenti explain, the development of social technologies has resulted in a wide range of web-based tools that produced online feminism. Feminist leadership coupled with the powerful resource of social media has created a new entry point for activism focused on womens issues and social justice. Finally, on-the-ground movement coupled with the online campaign, Ordain Women received major media attention. Thus, online technology has changed the way feminist movement functions and online feminism has intersected with religion to expand borders.
