Description: This book explores the intersectional feminist activism of young people within Islam and Evangelical Christianity. Deemed unruly souls due to their sexuality, gender, or race, these activists employ the creative tactics of digital media to seek justice and display their inherent value. The case studies demonstrate the overlaps between the hybrid identities of young Americans and the playful and interstitial aspects of digital media.

Review Quotes: "This book is an inspiration for anyone interested in digital religion, the experiences of women in religious spaces, and how digital media can serve as a tool to resist sexual abuse, religious abuse, and fight patriarchal structures."--Ruth Tsuria "co-editor of Media and Power in International Contexts: Perspectives on Agency and Identity"
