“…Destacan investigaciones centradas en el activismo digital encaminado a la protección de los derechos de las personas con diversidad funcional (Auxier et al, 2019), a mejoras de accesibilidad en el empleo de las TIC (Tjokrodinata et al, 2022), a desafiar la política gubernamental y los estereotipos negativos (Pearson & Trevisan, 2015), o a impulsar la participación política y ciudadana (Mann, 2018;Trevisan, 2020), entre otros temas. Además, "se aprecia un cambio en los discursos sociales que reivindican la diversidad en la belleza y la moda" (Mañas et al, 2022, p. 206).…”

La difusión y viralización de la información en los medios sociales ha sido ampliamente estudiada desde diversas perspectivas, incluida la del activismo digital. Por otro lado, el activismo relacionado con la discapacidad ha conquistado el terreno online obteniendo así un alcance que va más allá del espacio offline y generando diálogo en la esfera digital. Este artículo analiza la conversación generada en Twitter tomando como muestra todos los tuits con el hashtag #discapacidad anteriores y posteriores al Día Internacional de las Personas con Discapacidad. Se han analizado más de 18.000 tuits en los que hay casi otras tantas menciones, que han sido interpretadas como las aristas ponderadas de un grafo dirigido con el software Gephi, aplicando el algoritmo de fuerza bruta Force Atlas 2. Se ha puesto el foco en las comunidades conversacionales generadas en torno a ese hashtag, las temáticas principales y los actores destacados en dichas comunidades conversacionales. Se constata que, aunque la red de menciones es muy dispersa, Twitter es escenario de reivindicaciones que abarcan cierto apoyo institucional y político del entorno latinoamericano, de entidades relacionadas con la causa como La Fundación ONCE y, sobre todo, la predominancia clara de activistas mujeres.

“…After the election, the Trump administration removed legal resources, summaries of rights, and other guidance for disabled people and their families from the Department of Justice and Department of Education websites, while proposing budgets each year that would eliminate funding for or even the existence of programs that support disabled people (Douglass et al 2017). Many Congressional Republicans, who sought to repeal the ADA, joined this assault on disability rights and thereby the civil rights of disabled people (Auxier et al 2019).…”

“…Twitter has tried to address this problem by asking users to add alternative text descriptions to their tweet images, but only 0.1% of images currently have this [7]. Even content surrounding accessibility topics, such as the #HandsOffMyADA campaign, only have 6.7% described images and 2.4% captioned videos [1]. In contrast, other high-traffic websites often have alternative text on 40% to 70% of images [2,8].…”

“…While everyone should be able to access community, news, and other content on social media platforms, people with disabilities often rely on these networks for critical activism and support. On Twitter, groups of disability advocates have convened around hashtags like #CripTheVote [5] and #HandsOffMyADA [1] to organize political support of disability legislation. Online activism also can be a more accessible outlet for political advocacy than physical marches or protests, so people with a disability may turn to virtual activism more often [12].…”

Social media platforms are deeply ingrained in society, and they offer many different spaces for people to engage with others. Unfortunately, accessibility barriers prevent people with disabilities from fully participating in these spaces. Social media users commonly post inaccessible media, including videos without captions (which are important for people who are deaf or hard of hearing) and images without alternative text (descriptions read aloud by screen readers for people who are blind).
