Description

One emerging area in Information Systems scholarship is understanding how social injustices are related to social media use. We conduct a theorizing review to offer a theory of social injustice on social media. We examine the current literature at the intersection of social media and social injustice by using a grounded theory method. Our review will result in a theoretical framework. We illustrate one example from our developing framework with propositions related to how organizations facilitate marginalization. We discuss the contributions and implications of our framework for theory and practice, along with future directions such as offering a research agenda.
