Feminicide, the gender-related violent deaths of women, is the tip of the iceberg in a continuum of violence that is “terrorizing women” in the Americas (Fregoso and Bejarano 2010)1 . As well as street protests, performances, hashtag campaigns and many other online and offline actions, feminist activists across Latin America have been denouncing feminicide by creating digital records of this form of violence, including my own project mapping cases in Uruguay (feminicidiouruguay.net). This chapter presents an investigation into these feminist digital cartographies of feminicide, through examples in Uruguay, Mexico, and Ecuador.
