'I Am Woman, Hear Me Roar!': #March4Justice and the Desire for Law to Listen

In speaking to a particular moment in time, when women are increasingly frustrated that their stories are not heard by the law, this article analyses comments posted to the hashtag March4Justice, to offer a contextualist account of how women are locating themselves in (and against) the law by means of social media. It suggests that the use of this hashtag contributes to, and is evidence of, an overarching rallying discourse that pleads for law reform. The article showcases an empirical analysis of social media narratives to demonstrate that emotionality, narrativity, and communal identity weave together to represent (and constitute) a critique of law's ability to listen to the needs of women.
