Die Frauen der Red-Power-Bewegung

The study takes up current social issues such as gender equality, digitalisation and the male imprint on cultural memory. Using an exemplary case, it examines how to feminise master narratives shaped by men. By following the traces of historical actors and witnesses of the Red Power movement, the indigenous resistance in the USA in the 1960s and 1970s, on social platforms such as Facebook, Twitter and Instagram and comparing them with the traces in analogue archives in the USA and Europe, she makes visible that Red Power activists were decisive for the success of the political resistance and contributed to the implementation of pro-indigenous US laws with a genuinely female grassroots activism.
