“…This can have a very negative impact on CALD women, as noted by Nduhura et al (2019), who argue that empirical evidence has established a close connection between digital media in general, social media in particular and migration processes. Nduhura et al (2019) states that unlike in the past two decades, migrants nowadays are able to remain connected to their communities in both their home countries and the host ones through technology. This phenomenon is called 'connected migrant', which means that they are still very much connected with family and friends back home.…”

Women from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) backgrounds are particularly vulnerable to domestic and family violence, including technology-facilitated abuse. Often CALD women depend on technology to connect with support networks in their home country. Technology-facilitated abuse can be devastating and isolating. There is limited comprehensive knowledge of how technology-facilitated abuse is experienced by CALD women. This scoping review addresses this gap by exploring and analysing the available literature on technology-facilitated abuse amongst CALD women in the context of domestic and family violence. Employing a scoping review methodology, a total of nine studies were identified from a database search and other sources (including snowball, web search, and search verification processes). Studies were included if they contained the following three elements: (1) a focus on technology-facilitated abuse, (2) the inclusion of CALD women’s experiences, and (3) a context of domestic and family violence (DFV). This review firstly maps the methodologies and characteristics of the studies. Second, the most common types of technology-facilitated abuse that disproportionally affect CALD women are identified together with culturally related help-seeking barriers. Areas for future research are discussed along with suggestions for improving practises and policies for prevention and intervention.

“…From its minority and alternative media roots (Jenkins, 2009), YouTube has given rise to a wide user-created content community, and also now considered to be an important site for amateurs, microcelebrities, small entrepreneurs, and even large companies for pushing their content for wide exposure and with monetary benefits. Yet, YouTube videos become the anchor for different forms of cultural and associational expression among diverse publics (Cunningham, 2012;Jenkins et al, 2013;Nduhura et al, 2019). Notably, although YouTube's architecture and design interface is primarily designed for individual participation rather than collective formation (Burgess & Green, 2009, pp.…”

‘Hey, I like ur videos. Super relate!’ Locating sisterhood in a postcolonial intimate public on YouTube

This paper reexamines YouTube as a site of feminine, networked, and intimate sociality among Filipino women online. We unpack this by identifying how commenters on YouTube engage with the performativity of an intimate relationship between a Filipina and her foreign husband on YouTube. Extending Mina Roces' concept of 'local sisterhood' in the digital context, we coin the term 'online sisterhood' to articulate the diverse ways through which Filipino women engage with interracial intimacies in the realm of online communication. By conducting a thematic analysis of comments on a popular YouTube channel of a Filipina married to a Caucasian man, we uncover the dimensions of an unfolding online sisterhood as aspirational, relatable, regulatory, and defensive modalities. We argue that these frames are informed by gendered, racialized and even class-based aspirations and contestations tied to Philippine postcolonial history and society. Ultimately, as a site for feminine sociality and intimacy, YouTube also becomes an avenue for constructing, reinforcing and countering the stereotypical representations of Filipino women in a networked and postcolonial space.
