Africa: To Overcome Fear and Hatred We Must Undo the Dehumanisation Rooted in Dogma: [Daily Maverick] The algorithms that help us crunch data so easily also have a tendency of telling us what we want to hear - and showing us what we want to read.

Furthermore, contemporary digital systems and algorithms do not reflect the pluralistic nature of the humanities. Concomitantly, human subjectivities in digital spaces often display creative and unique methods of digital resistance to existing normative categorizations and algorithmic biases. Consequently, this Research Topic seeks to draw on the existing ground work of the Full Stack Feminism in Digital Humanities (FSFDH) research project, funded by UKRI-AHRC and the Irish Research Council under the ‘UK-Ireland Collaboration in the Digital Humanities Research Grants Call’ (grant numbers AH/W001667/1 and IRC/W001667/1). We seek to recognize and explore cultural methods of survival and resistance within existing biased, market-driven digital empires. This will be done by creating a collection of scholarly research that foregrounds storytelling and embodiment, not just as a...
