Elisa Flores Weiss
Elisa Flores Weiss is a Mexican-German director and digital editor based between Berlin and Mexico City. Raised across Latin America, her perspective was shaped early on by journalism, political storytelling, and social movements. Her work grows out of long-term engagement with queer and feminist struggles in Mexico and a critical interest in how digital platforms govern visibility, amplify violence, and how collective resistance emerges under algorithmic control.
Session
Digital platforms are essential for feminist movements and increasingly hostile to them. Drawing on qualitative research with Mexican cyberfeminist activists, this talk shows how X algorithmically suppresses feminist speech, amplifies misogynist violence, and how activists develop collective strategies of resistance beyond platform control.
