AltDaily: Riot Grrrl Revisited: Kathleen Hanna... →
She shares a recently received zine with us, from The International Girl Gang Underground and praises them as the next wave of the movement she’s been so dedicated to and recognized for that I’m bummed to later find out she only has one copy. She explains she doesn’t even mind when their criticism of Riot Grrrl (which is, to teens and twentysomethings, actually history instead of memory) turns...

My ass is staying here. Having a week long slumber party with Ms. Funk and going to work every day. And drawing more for my thesis.
Except for tonight! I’m checking out the Int’l Girl Gang Underground Zine Party in BK. And that’s all the fun I’m allowed to have. For now.
