O Twitter de Renê Silva e a ocupa？？o da tecnologia: o morro (do Alem？o) tem vez

in late 2010, during the military occupation of the adeus' slum in rio de janeiro, renê silva, 17, stood out by using the microblog twitter to transmit real-time information about the events that marked the invasion. silva, who made his posts from the slum itself, is an example of a subject belonging to the peripheral group and who, despite the socio-economic barriers imposed, appropriated the ict through strategies and tactics that in action destabilized the hegemonic order (de certeau, 1980/2008), here mainly represented by the mass media. thus, this work highlights how silva, through his plural and hybrid literacies, appropriated new technologies and thereby became a privileged reporter of the conflicts that occurred in the alem？o's complex of slums.
