The number of heart transplants (HT) has been rising in the United States each year, with a record 3551 transplants performed in 2019. 1 Despite this, more than 3709 people continue to await HT, with waitlist times averaging months to years. Each year, 5%-10% of HT candidates die on the waitlist. 1 There has been an increase in the rate of hepatitis C virus-infected (HCV+) organs available for transplant. 2-4 Drug overdose deaths (ODD) are a large contributor, with the CDC reporting approximately 70 000 ODDs in 2017, of which 30% were estimated to be HCV+ donors. 3,5 ODD donors are usually younger, have less comorbid conditions, and are more likely to have died from anoxia, 3 factors associated with improved posttransplant survival. 6,7 Historically

Based on a three‐year‐long ethnographic research on a group of young Turkish‐American Muslim women, affiliated with a faith‐based social movement, I explored why these young women turned to Facebook to maintain their religious sisterhood after their graduation from high school and how their media choice and use of Facebook contribute to their Muslim subject formation. Drawing from literature on ethics and morality and employing a discourse‐centered approach to language and culture provide me with frameworks and tools that help to move beyond the homogenizing and prescriptive concepts like “media niche” and “networked ore digital religion” in this study. Through these frameworks, I demonstrated that their media choice and use is more about their ethical becoming as Muslim subjects rather than solely being about medium itself or performing religious identities. Besides, their moral project, that is becoming better Muslims, rely not only on religious codes and norms but also on everyday social norms and values. This study particularly demonstrates how new practices of mediation become part of existing and old ethical debates and therefore is important in shedding light on the media choices of individuals.
