description Jia Tan's Digital Masquerade: Feminist Rights and Queer Media in China (NYU Press, 2023) interrogates the intersections across digital media of feminist rights activism, queer culture, and neoliberalism in an illiberal context. Drawing on a wide range of artefacts- interviews with feminist advocates and queer media practitioners, participant-observations at queer community events, and cultural analysis of social media content, queer films, and dating apps-Tan develops the useful concept of 'digital masquerade'. 'Digital masquerade' describes the ways in which queer and feminist media users and activists navigate neoliberalism, technological affordances, gender norms, and censorship, which are simultaneously liberating and constricting. Digital Masquerade is an important book that dismantles reductive constructions of feminist and queer activism in China.
