Larrisa (Larri) Miller (she/her) works at the intersection of media theory, feminist studies, and computational social science. She researches defensive publics in digital spaces, focusing on how anti-feminist rhetoric underlies right wing radicalization. Larri uses computational methods such as text analysis and network analysis alongside digital ethnography and critical discourse analysis. The goal of her work is to better understand how digital spaces are weaponized in order to instead foster a digital world rooted in equity.
