 With the introduction of social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook and Instagram, the hashtag was created to easily organize and search for information.Hashtags can be used when people want to advocate for a movement, store content or tweets from a movement for future use, and allow other social media users to contribute to a discussion about a certain movement by using existing hashtags.Using hashtags as a way to advocate for something online makes it easier and more accessible for more people to acknowledge it around the world.
