Abstract
The international reproductive justice (RJ) hashtag activisms are under-explored even though the technical communication scholars have investigated several hashtag activisms generated in the United States centering the western women's perspectives. This study offers a triangulation of counterpublics, RJ, and social justice theoretical frameworks to analyze the #AbortionMeraHaq movement initiated in India by two digital counterpublic groups. Results suggest that the activists recognized, reinterpreted, revealed, rejected, and attempted to replace abortion injustices and responded to the backlashes through digital storytelling and coalition and confianza building. The future RJ-Activists can learn digital abortion advocacy and backlash counteraction strategies from this movement.
