- Description
- Book about the way zines document feminism and activism of the 1990s. Riot grrrls, punk feminists who are best known for their girl power activism, used punk ideologies and the practice of zine-ing to create radical feminist sites. The author argues that zines are a form of literacy participation used to document personal, social and political values within punk. Through zine studies, the use of zines by riot grrrls to promote punk feminism and dealing with issues of rape and race are analysed.
