The head of the riot grrrl movement of the nineties was Bikini Kill’s Kathleen Hanna and Bikini Kill’s shining ode to lesbian love with a bad chick “Rebel Girl” though just about everything on Pussy Whipped. The follow up left me a little indifferent.
Still I was fascinated to see an interview with Kathleen on the Guardian’s art pages streaming from Grit-TV a feminist blog.
Kathleen discusses the violence and negativity that followed Bikini Kill as an out punk rock band and also the emerging Queerzine movement and young lesbian feminist moviemakers.
More than worth a look, here is the url:
