CANAVARRO, Marcela. A data analysis on activist media from Rio de Janeiro favelas. Comun. soc [online]. 2019, vol.16, e7272.  Epub 20-Maio-2019. ISSN 0188-252X.  https://doi.org/10.32870/cys.v2019i0.727.

We present data-driven analyses of activist media produced by inhabitants of the favelas of Rio de Janeiro. The content was collected using their Facebook pages from 2015 to 2017 and was analyzed through computational and manual methods. The analyses reiterate and extend previous research, showing that the collectives are focused on the particular favela 's identity and the demand for rights mainly -but not only- linked to violence, police abuses and state racism. It also presents nontrivial process to look at data produced by media collectives on social networks, by analyzing their posts in an aggregated way through clustering techniques, rather than relying on a few popular posts that may or may not represent their main agenda.

Palavras-chave : Community media; activism; youth; data-driven analysis; multi-methods.
