Has any fandoms you’re involved in been part of any protest or acts of social activism?

To be honest, no. But here are my findings for the Kpop Community.

Disclaimer: I'm not a Kpop fan nor am I part of the fandom, but here are my findings concerning this week's topic regarding activism :) Introduction: Public Sphere as a form of Activism

Since the emergence of social media, activism has evolved and developed through access to the public sphere. The public sphere is essential in society and is the root of public opinion to discuss or solve public affairs. The public sphere is a space “where free and equal citizens come together to share information, to debate, to discuss, or to deliberate on common concerns” (Odugbemi, 2008: 17). The public sphere is known to be normative and it is crucial to ensure democracy in a society. It is accessible to the public where participants are able to gather and discuss mutual interest with no restrictions.

Today, the Internet has become a platform for people to debate or raise public concerns. Many activists have used social media to raise political or social concerns, such as the Black Lives Matter protest and the Stop Asian Hate movement. In today's digital era, the Internet is the ideal public sphere to exchange ideas as it is accessible and utilized by the majority of people today. The Internet has become a public sphere for netizens to debate which results in the formation of the public opinion. “Public opinion is a product of the public sphere, and a crucial concept in governance and political decision making” (The Public Sphere, 2021 pg 3). 

BTS and their advocate for the Black Lives Matter Protest

BTS fans are known for smashing records. The fandom or as known as 'ARMY', has driven the Korean pop septet to extraordinary album sales, blockbuster video debuts, and lightning-fast concert sellouts. However, this time the fandom massively contributed to a social and good cause. According to Madden (2020), The Black Lives Matter campaign in the United States has received its highest contribution from a celebrity to date: $1 million from the seven-member K-pop group BTS. The following morning, the BTS Army (BTS fans) began to organise and fundraise, led by the fan-formed One in an Army charity campaign. The hashtag #MatchAMillion was so popular on Twitter that hundreds of thousands of fans contributed to the fundraiser. By Monday morning, BTS's followers had outbid the celebrities by more than $200,000. The Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement which is one of the biggest social movements, returned to a peak in 2020 when George Floyd, an innocent African-American man was killed by Derek Chauvin, a white police officer in the United States. With the massive support from the Kpop community, K-pop celebrities and fans are able to further spread awareness and contribute to ending racism and hate towards the Black community who are oppressed in America. This clearly demonstrates that the power of fandom is able to contribute towards social activism, which is closely linked to the public sphere where people come and gather to debate mutual concerns.

Apart from that, the Kpop fandom (Army) ambush racist hashtags such as #WhiteLivesMatter and #AllLivesMatter, by posting a seemingly endless stream of K-pop fancams (fan-made cut-and-stitch videos of their idols). According to Rolli (2020), they similarly swamped the Dallas Police Department's iWatch Dallas app, which encouraged citizens to upload footage of demonstrators engaging in illegal actions.

To summarize, the astonishing Black Lives Matter donation from the BTS ARMY highlights the potential and power of K-Pop fandoms or any fandom to make a huge difference on a worldwide scale. Being an ally of BLM myself, I'm extremely impressed by what the BTS fans (Army) have done! From my knowledge and from what my ARMY friends have told me (lol), BTS has always sung about equality, mental health, and self-love, and it's clear that their fans have definitely grasped those values, by helping to end racial injustice and contributing to a social and political cause :)

The Academy just released a record 928 invitations to new academy members this week, which included some African actors and filmmakers from the continent and diaspora.

It's no secret that the academy is whiter than ever, and over the last couple of years the Academy has come under fire for its lack of diversity and inclusion of marginalized communities in movements like #OscarsSoWhite in 2014.

On Monday, the Academy put out 928 invitations to a list of new academy members, raising the number of invitees to include more women, people of color, and international film makers. Women make up 49 percent of the new list, which will shift the number of women to 31 percent of the overall academy. People of color make up 38 percent of the new members, which brings the overall number to just 16 percent. The new members all together represent 59 countries.

The list included some African artists from the continent and the diaspora in various categories like actors, directors, visual effects, documentary, short film and feature, and executives. The artists were Danai Gurira, Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde, Daniel Kaluuya, Waniru Kahiu, Femi Odugbemi, Tendeka Matatu, Ngozi Onwurah, Yvonne Muinde, Wunmi Mosako.

The Academy included actors involved in large blockbuster films like "Black Panther" and "Get Out," but the list also included other filmmakers like Kenya's Kahiu whose film "Rafiki" was banned in Kenya but still received positive responses this year. Some members have started accepting their invitations especially on Twitter, but even if no members decline their invitation the Academy still has a long way to go when it comes to diversity. You can read the full list of invitees here.
