Wondering whether anyone is interested in an ongoing thread about the process of #DataCleaning and #PaperWriting in our project about #NewsCoverage of #BlackProtest in mainstream newswires and Black newspapers. Lots of data to clean (~10K articles & ~10K events), so looking for ways to get papers along the way. We clean data by issue cluster, so I reviewed the #MillionManMarch articles & decided to see if there is a paper about that. I think I saw some interesting patterns.

#BlackMovement #Afrosphere #BlackHistory #BlackProtest #AfricanAmerican #BlackTwitter #BlackMastodon Reminder from my ongoing research on Black protest from Black newspapers. In the mid-2000s, a lot of the new action was in the Afrosphere, Black blogs. Also ColorOfChange.Org . The first big Internet-organized Black campaign was the Jena 6 protest in 2007. People were calling it the "new Civil Rights Movement." You can really see the infrastructure being built, the lead-up to BLM.
