Abstract

The present work analyzes the way in which the Evita Movement, as a popular political organization, uses faces on its Instagram profile to give relevance to different problems, either to show a demand through its victims or to share images of characters that condense their ideological postulates. From the analysis of faces where victims of femicides, deceased by Covid-19 in socio-community eateries or political references appear, it reflects on the way in which the organization postulates itself as the representation of the most economically and socially disadvantaged people.
