The Riot Grrrl Collection

by Lisa Darms (Editor), Johanna Fateman (Introduction), Kathleen Hanna (Contributor)

For the past two decades, young women (and men) have found their way to feminism through Riot Grrrl. Against the backdrop of the culture wars and before the rise of the Internet or desktop publishing, the zine and music culture of the Riot Grrrl movement empowered young women across the country to speak out against sexism and oppression, creating a powerful new force of liberation and unity within and outside of the women's movement. While feminist bands like Bikini Kill and Bratmobile fought for their place in a male-dominated punk scene, their members and fans developed an extensive DIY network of activism and support."The Riot Grrrl Collection" reproduces a sampling of the original zines, posters, and printed matter for the first time since their initial distribution in the 1980s and '90s, and includes an original essay by Johanna Fateman and an introduction by Lisa Darms.

Lisa Darms is senior archivist at the Fales Library & Special Collections at New York University, where she has created the Fales Riot Grrrl Collection.

Johanna Fateman is a writer, musician, record producer, and member of the post-punk band Le Tigre. She, along with Kathleen Hanna and several other key Riot Grrrls, recently donated her zines and early writings to the Fales.

The Riot Grrrl Collection: Preliminary Thoughts by Tobi Vail

INTRODUCTION: I am an author/fanzine editor featured in this book. My contribution includes excerpts from Jigsaw #1 1989, Bikini Kill #1 1991, Bikini Kill #2 1991, various correspondence and flyers/graphics. I am enjoying reading The Riot Grrrl Collection and I think it looks fantastic. I would like to thank everyone involved in making this happen. I appreciate all of your hard work. I fully support this project and I am looking forward to seeing what people have to say about The Riot Grrrl Collection after they read it. I know I am not alone in welcoming critical, analytical responses to this document and the history that it represents.

I will post a full review when I've finished reading the book but I already have a lot to say so I will start with the introduction. First of all, there are some factual details I would like to correct, question and/or add to the book. I am keeping a running list of mistakes or questionable claims, as I do every time a book is written that includes local history that I have witnessed/taken part in. This is one way history gets revised so I don’t want to just ignore errors or inconsistencies. History that is being written and recorded is contestable terrain.

So far this is what I have down -

Lisa's intro to The Riot Grrrl Collection ends with a quote from Girl Germs #3:

“If you are sitting there reading this and you feel like you might be a riot grrrl then you probably are so call yourself one”
She attributes the quote to me, Tobi Vail, but this should be credited to Molly Neuman.

When I first read this I thought -
I don’t think I would have ever said this, I don’t remember ever feeling this way about riot grrrl, I actually remember feeling like it was really important to acknowledge that many of us (myself included) were a bit apprehensive about calling ourselves riot grrrls for legitimate reasons.

This is obviously a-whole-nother article but, in short, some of these reasons included class, race, sexuality, gender expression as well as theoretical differences – for example, following feminist/political theorists such as bell hooks, Judith Butler, Alison Jaggar, Michel Foucault, Joan Cocks, Elizabeth Spelman, Angela Davis - not wanting to universalize a utopian idea of sisterhood or promote an essentialist idea of gender. I also had problems witnessing what I later learned is called the oppression Olympics (see Elizabeth Martinez) and some of the self-serving misuses of identity politics that I saw happening in the riot grrrl scene. There were also strategic differences – like wanting to play in bands and make zines but not wanting to go to C.R. type meetings (but still respecting those who did go to meetings, blah blah blah....) and in general, being focused on trying to build a culture of resistance rather than wanting to get involved in more traditional forms of political organizing, which, at the time, I felt were ineffective in that they no longer spoke to young people. Then the media coverage happened and it got even more confusing/alienating adding all these additional layers and layers of complexity...one being that I was not interested in being a leader or a star or taking part in a feminist movement that had leaders or stars. I was interested in encouraging and participating in radical, anti-capitalist, non-hierarchical, diffuse, localized feminist movement/scenes/action and was trying to help build an international network through punk rock /d.i.y. /underground music culture that connected us via bands and zine-making – I wasn’t really focused on A NAME, I thought there should be multiple names and mutability and when riot grrrl started to seem to represent something else it didn’t speak to me so much AS A NAME…I thought it would keep moving, evolving, changing, growing – now, of course, that whole time/place is known as “riot grrrl” and you have to just say, yes ok, that is the term, fine, I surrender.

This is all to say that YEAH - I understood the hesitancy to call yourself a riot grrrl as something to respect and not something to gloss over. You could be a feminist, a punk feminist even, a self-identified grrrl even, a member of a so-called “riot grrrl band” and not feel represented by that category.

I thought about it some more…

I thought, MAYBE, it is POSSIBLE that the quote is mine. MAYBE I felt this way once a long, long, time ago - way back at the very beginning of riot grrrl…the year before it started…the summer it started, the month it started, the week it started, the day it started…that long hot summer evening in Malcolm X Park…in a secret grrrl gang solidarity letter to Jen Smith that spring? Before meetings were happening and it all was just this big utopian dream of revolution that some of us girls were using as a metaphor - or maybe a dare - as a way to imagine and talk about what a feminist network of action would actually look like, as a way of getting to that next step, as a way to create a feminist future, as a way of asking for back up or to gather an army?
When I look back at some of my writing in Jigsaws #2-#4 I see some of this kind of hopeful romanticism there in the form of sisterly sloganeering and it’s not totally formulated on paper yet but it is inspired and it did inspire others to action, it did get me from point a to point b to point c, and so - YES - maybe I could have written this but I don’t remember feeling it. That makes sense, as a lot of emotions you experience as a young person are hard to feel or even relate to later in life. Perhaps this is just something I blocked from my memory years ago? Hmmm.

But then I noticed that the quote was credited to an issue of Girl Germs. I didn’t write for Girl Germs. Molly Neuman and Allison Wolfe were the editors/main writers of Girl Germs and I don’t remember ever contributing any writing or being interviewed for Girl Germs but, again, I thought maybe I had forgotten? So I looked around and started rereading Girl Germs #3, which is included in the Riot Grrrl Collection in its entirety, and I found it - see page 78 of the book, page 27 of the fanzine - as a part of Molly’s Top Ten (Extended Dance Remix) under the sub heading "#9 riot grrrl".

I encourage those of us who were participants to comment on the historical record, to tell our version of what happened, to record our memories and thoughts and find a way to share them. If you are reading "riot grrrl" zines for the first time I look forward to finding out how someone in 2013 will hear what we had to say about the world 20 or more years ago when we were much younger.

Ok, that's it for now! Back to the book.

P.S. I don't think Kathleen Hanna ended up writing the preface for the book even though she is listed here. Her writing is included in the book.

http://jigsawunderground.blogspot.com...

P.P.S. I should add that Lisa did email me before the book came out to ask for my authorization to reprint my work and listed this quote in a long list of things she wanted my permission to reproduce. I just said yes to the whole email and didn't think about it too much until the book came out - so, in all fairness to Lisa, I want to say that I missed an opportunity to correct this mistake before it was published, which I now regret.

I also would like to thank Lisa and Johanna everyone at the Fales Archive and The Feminist Press and all of the contributors/participants made it possible for this book to exist.

A life altering, grrrl inspiring collection of truth. Really.

[Autumn Shuler · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book is invaluable for anyone interested in the zines of Riot Grrrl. It's easy to forget that the movement was not just about music, but expression of all kinds, and especially literature. It was about opening up whole new ways of writing that differed from the typical, and writing about subjects that were pretty atypical at the time.

Once you get past the spelling errors that are common throughout the zines, they are truly spectacular examples of total honesty in writing.

An inspiring collection that I plan on perusing endlessly.

[Chris Browning · Rating 5 out of 5]

A pretty essential companion to the Riot Grrrl history, with some extraordinary artefacts commemorated here. It deals with the most personal things to gender and race and even Antonin Artaud. It’s a beautiful collection and at times overwhelming (which is why I’ve taken ages to read it, because it makes more of an impact in smaller nuggets like you would have done with the original zines), but completely wonderful in every way

[Lord Beardsley · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is an incredible anthology of some top notch zines from the Riot Grrrl era. I had some of these at one time (Nomy Lamm's brilliant 'I'm So Fucking Beautiful'), and hadn't read in years. It was a pleasure and an inspiration to read them again -- some twenty-odd years since they were put out.

This is a time capsule of what it was to be a young woman/queer kid in the 1990s fringe movement. Still as inspiring now as they were back in the day. The desperation and urgency, plus the sense of spontenaity and acceptance of imperfections found within the pages was so refreshing to see. The points made by some of the people who made these zines are thought of as ground-breaking now -- back in the 90s they were utterly unheard of and very radical. With a movement so scoffed and vilified by mainstream media, I believe that one of Riot Grrrl's biggest victories is that many of the points advocated back then are now setting the dialogue for the much more globalized world that we live in nowadays in the 21st century.

I was particularly happy to see zine offerings from people of color as well as men. 'Thorn' by Kelly Marie Martin was marvelous. The tribute to David Wojnarowicz was moving and very evocative of what life during the AIDS crisis was like. The chronicle of the Riot Grrrl Convention in the summer of 1992 by Ramdasha Bikceem was fantastic and I appreciated her insight into the DC scene as an outsider, especially a hilarious 17-year-old punk skater African American grrrl whose keen sense of humor and observation was able to pin-point all the bullshit that inevitably came to play an important factor in that time and place. Slant 5's scathing account of the notorious incident at You've Got Bad Taste (the now defunct curio shop in Silverlake, California that was owned by X's John Doe and Exene Cervenka) Chop Suey Spex/Exene Cervenkagate was brilliant. A perfect send-up of latent racism and hypocrisy in the artsy/punk movement. One of my absolute favorites was Johanna Fateman's scathingly brilliant fanzine dedicated to Antonin Artaud. Hilarious, well-written, and a perfect evocation of bullshit art world politics.

I will go back to this one for many years to come. For anyone interested in Riot Grrrl/zine making/counter culture etc. this is a must-read.

A great resource, but it is so depressing to see how little has changed- we’re still fighting the same fights

[Petty Lisbon · Rating 3 out of 5]

This was an informative book. I never thought about the difficulty of archiving things (I say as have a poorly assembled DIY movie ticket scrapbook) so having an expert curate this collection made me appreciate that more. While it was just scanned zines, she left out zines that were too personal which I thought was in good taste. Of course, some of the zines were just random collages or too hard to read but it does a good job at showing what a zine is and what kind of content goes inside (and perhaps why social media isn't terrible). The authors said this wasn't a coffee table book, but if it looks like a duck, and makes a heavy thud when it falls off your stand at 2 AM...
It was interesting seeing that a lot of discourse you see online nowadays was also being talked about back then (especially for fat shaming and white feminism). For white feminism, I feel like maybe over representing the call outs for racism made Riot Grrrl/zines seem more inclusive than they were or that they were actively aware and trying to fix their image when that maybe wasn't the case.

[Sara · Rating 5 out of 5]

Wow... this is like my life circa 1993-1995 all put together in one place. All the zines from the Riot Grrrl era are carefully reproduced in color in this volume that will always have a permanent space on my bookshelf.

It was hard being a young female in the 90s, as I think its hard to be a young female at any time. Paired with a strong interest in music and the frustration of the typical "boys club" mentality in the scene and it only increased the feelings on alienation. We didn't want to f*ck the band, we wanted to BE the band. Riot Grrrl didn't care if you were any good at it, just that you did it, you created, you had an outlet for all of the angst. Bands like Bikini Kill, Bratmobile, Heavens to Betsy... zines like "Girl Germs"... it is all represented in here.

Some of the criticisms of Riot Grrrl were that it was a white girl's movement, and I get that. This still doesn't underscore the importance of it, and the fact that it deserves to be documented. It was a true movement, girls nationwide (worldwide, even) connected up with each other to share ideas and form solidarity. It wouldn't be too dramatic to say Riot Grrrl may have saved my life.

This isn't a read you sit down and plow through, as its simply too exhaustive. And handwritten zines take time to read in all their scratched-out, taped-up, messy glory. A masterpiece. I am so thankful for this book. Someday I will share it with my daughter.

[julie k. · Rating 5 out of 5]

great accompaniment to the docu "the punk singer" and the book "girls to the front", this is an excellent collection of unheard voices of the 90s, grassroots publishing and correspondence of a demographic of girls across the country

[Matthew Gurteen · Rating 4 out of 5]

As a culturally noteworthy book, this collection has a lot to offer, although I'd be lying if I said I agreed with everything in it. The Riot Grrrl movement is significant in that a lot of the concerns of modern feminism are born in this era and through this genre. Also, the most exciting part for me personally, zine culture marks almost the last bastion of political journalism in magazines and the utilization of the public sphere before the internet age. I surprisingly found myself agreeing with a lot of the points made in the collection, particularly by the writers who do not represent the majority of the Riot Grrrl movement, such as women of an ethnic minority and queer men. Sadly this collection, and Riot grrrl in general, is let down by the majority voices of privileged white women who, in many cases, were writing borderline nonsense. These un-self-aware zines often read like insane manifestos, although they are significant in understanding the bulk, and eventual downfall, of the movement. I would be willing to give this book five stars on a purely artistic base. Many of the zines are amazing to look at as collages of various articles and hand-drawn pieces; however, the introductory essay says you should not treat it as a coffee table book. Not that the editor can control how people read it, but since this is clearly not the intention, I've given it four stars. I would recommend it to everyone, so long as you make sure to approach it with a critical eye. Of course, I believe you should do this with anything you read anyway, but I feel as though it is worth reiterating here when there is a clear political agenda to the writing.

"Right now, maybe Chainsaw is about frustration. Frustration in music. Frustration in living. In being a girl, in being a misfit of any sort. In being a dork, you know, the last kid to get picked for the stupid kickball team in grade school. Which is where this whole punk rock thing came from in the first place. Not from the Sex Pistols or L.A. But from the Geeks who decided or realized to turn the tables so to speak and take control of their lives and form a real underground."

[Alicia · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book is made up of real zines and fliers and other riot grrrl memorabilia. It's awesome. It's definitely what a lot of people would call a coffee table book, but there is actually quite a bit of reading. It's always cool to see stuff like this written by people who weren't trying to be famous, but just trying to live their lives the way they wanted. It's nifty that they included diary entries and things that are super personal. As a whole, this book is pretty engrossing. There are so many different viewpoints, subjects, and images to go through. At times, it can be a bit hard to read, literally, some of the handwriting is illegible, and because some parts are so text heavy. Honestly, that's not enough to keep me from giving this book 5 stars. It's something I'd definitely flip through every now and again even after already reading the entire thing.

I was too young when the Riot Grrrl movement happened, this wasn't something that lived in the neighborhoods I grew up, the ones in the lower income housing buildings of the Bronx, or even when we moved to better neighborhoods. Punk wasn't a thing in a place where Rap, R&B, and Hip Hop were a thing, they weren't my thing and I always felt like an outsider pretending to be something I wasn't. Looking through the zines collected in this book make me wish I had the chance to be a part of this movement, to be so proud of something and say what I believed and listen to music that mattered to me. This is an inspired collection and I'm glad I took the time to look through it and read what they had to say.

[Amy Casey · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is as close as having an appointment to view a library's special collections wing as one can have in book form, specifically with archived DIY flyers, zines, and other materials created during the Riot Grrrl punk movement in the 1990s on the west coast. While the introduction gives great orienting comments, I was hoping for more of a guided tour throughout the text to help me better understand the background of each piece. That being said, the collection fittingly invites readers to take each artifact as they will, or don't, who cares, be the revolution and make it whatever it means for you--and that's how they were originally intended. A great immersive look into a unique moment of creative and political energy.

[Debra · Rating 4 out of 5]

Great collection of flyers, zines, letters etc that show the development of both the riot grrl movement and third wave feminism. It is still as exciting and inspiring to read now as it was 20 years ago.

Though the materials speak for themselves I would have like to have seen maybe a couple more reflective essays written by the riot grrl authors and those involved in the movement (such as the piece by Johanna Fateman) to provide more context. Great collection.

[Claire · Rating 2 out of 5]

I remember being so excited about zones. Sending a few bills through the mail and getting some mad scribblings & art badly photocopied back to me.

I think smooshing a few of the objects together just doesn't work for me. Not the bits that 13 year old me would have been so excited to read. Not packaged in the right way. Just didn't work for me.

[Deborah · Rating 4 out of 5]

I really appreciated the inclusion of zines/flyers/manifestos/other writings by fat women, and women of color. Other books I've read about Riot Grrrl seem to center around white women so this more diverse look into this movement was very needed. A must read for anyone interested in punk rock, feminism, zine culture, and archive work!

[Sylvain ⚢ · Rating 5 out of 5]

Once you get past some of the small text and spelling errors, this is an absolutely spellbinding anthology of some of the most iconic riot grrrl fanzines of the 90's. Books such as The Riot Grrrl Collection are vital in understanding the historical importance of subcultures such as Riot Grrrl. There are some incredibly valuable ideas and writings in here.

Some of my favorite zines were as follows:
- Girl Germs
This isn't to say that other popular zines such as Bikini Kill and Jigsaw didn't catch my attention, but Girl Germs is what held that attention the most. With the most "meaty" content to come along with it, brimming with interviews and letters as well as very honest excerpts on female masturbation, including a humorous page on how straight women should "behave" around lesbians. Very insightful stuff here on what the current perspectives of riot grrrl were as well as some relevant issues of the time.

- Thorn
There is only a small excerpt from this zine in this book, but it provided a very insightful look into queerness, the author's struggles with understanding their identity and who they wanted to be as well as a homage to those lost to and impacted by the AIDS epidemic. The writing is incredibly vivid and powerful; it doesn't hold any punches.

- I (Heart) Amy Carter
Another zine that touches on themes of queerness, solely in the context of sapphic and lesbian relationships. The author also delves into her connection with and projection of herself onto Amy Carter, explaining, "I did not desire her, I wanted to be her. Not because she was desire but because she was not me." Great stuff here.

- I'm So Fucking Beautiful
This zine takes a normally unseen academic approach in dissecting institutionalized fatphobia and how it links to riot grrrl feminism. Not only does it feel very professional, but there is still that charge of emotionality that fuels all of these writings: it's raw, it's personal, and it's real. Definitely one of the most impactful zines as this is still a current, underdiscussed issue we see in today's society.

- Bamboo Girl
Amazing historical and personal zine which touches on the issue of racism within the riot grrrl movement, the punk subculture, and society at large. With this being an underdiscussed topic in the riot grrrl movement at its peak, it's vital to bring some eyes onto zines which dissect issues such as race and class.

- Slant
A short excerpt of a zine that also touches more on issues of racism in the riot grrrl movement. The author discusses how she struggles to buy into the slogan of "girl power" when she has often been excluded from these promises simply for not being white. A great look at some of the unspoken power structures within not just the riot grrrl movement, but society as well.

- Chop Suey Spex
Equally hilarious and moving, this zine touches on issues of racism framed around a personal anecdote from the authors of the zine. So much insight is given to us on how - even in the punk and riot grrrl scene - issues of race were often shrugged off or pushed to the side by a movement heavily overtaken by white, middle-class people.

[Madison Grace · Rating 5 out of 5]

This collection exceeded my expectations. There really is no better way to learn about the Riot Grrrl movement than reading their own words. I was honestly surprised at how progressive many of them were — Girl Germs 3, I’m So Fucking Beautiful 2, and Bamboo Girl 5 in particular were so forward thinking and challenging, even by today’s standards. There were a few excerpts that I wanted more from — particularly, Fembot, Gunk, and Slant — but wanting more from a book is usually a sign that it’s a pretty good book, so I won’t hold my desire against the collection.

Overall, even though I wasn’t there, I think this collection did a good job of highlighting many different voices and issues across the movement, including race, class, weight, sexual orientation, and gender identity. Even pro-riot grrrl sources (I’m looking at you, Sara Marcus) didn’t do a good job at displaying just how diverse riot grrrl could be. There were definite intersectionality issues, but this collection highlighted Black voices, Asian voices, and queer/genderqueer voices effectively. I was really impressed.

I can also see more clearly here than ever how riot grrrl rhetoric can be potentially transphobic. In fairness, almost all mainstream 90’s feminism was trans-exclusive, but the anger towards males and the “womyn” spelling that comes up in a lot of these zines makes me pause a little. To be clear, I know that Kathleen Hanna herself is trans-inclusive, and her writing in this collection is the most biting of all, so I’m not indicting these 90’s feminists using 2025 standards. But it’s still worth noticing and learning from.

That’s the key here: learning. I feel like I actually learned something from this book. I’m really glad that so many of these zines were preserved and reprinted without editorializing. It’s a primary source for an important moment in history.

Two more notes: I (Heart) Amy Carter was adorable and I loved it; and, it’s so funny to me how often the authors of these zines mention Tobi Vail’s Jigsaw, even alluding to how hard it is to find, and even this collection only manages to print two pages from it. Mysterious to the end!

** pone su playlist de riot grrrl para su reseña**

¿Y qué es riot grrrl? ¿Es un movimiento social y cultural? ¿Fue un grupo de mujeres con ganas de ser parte de la contracultura que se formaba a inicios de los 90s? ¿Es una chica que soñaba con protestar a través de su banda de música y fanzines de otra amiga que apoyaba y seguía los mismos ideales?

¿Pero quién inspiró a estas riot grrrls? Me pongo a pensar en todo este movimiento punk desde Inglaterra; este cambio en la estética femenina que empujó Vivienne Westwood con ‘Sex’ desde su trinchera, a través de la moda; de las Slits intentando hacerse paso desde la música con una banda integrada por mujeres.

Uno puede tomar de este libro como mejor le acomode, para entender o no lo ‘riot grrrl’, desde un movimiento, desde el título de una canción de Kathleen Hana o desde una serie de fanzines que transmitían vivencias, sentimientos, pensamientos; que invitaba a la protesta a través de distintas expresiones artísticas.

Me gusta pensar en una frase para definir a una riot grrrl: “Revolution don’t come easy, honey” Y esta colección lo demuestra, han pasado más de 30 años y la revolución continúa.

This is a selection of Riot Grrrl zines, art, letters, and so on—part of the the Fales Riot Grrrl colllection. It’s an important bit of modern women’s history, and while I admit I was in my early 20’s during the movement and so it brings back memories, I heartily recommend this to young activists today, because so many of the discussions are exactly the same. It helps show that we are all closer than we are different.

[Joe · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was pretty great - made me realize how many conversations started by riot grrrl informed the punk scene as I knew it growing up, and cool to see that a lot of the criticisms of it (class/race inclusivity, etc.) were pretty prevalent in some of these zines at the time. Also proud of having worked for the archive's home. The Kathleen Hanna Evan Dando zine is definitely the standout for me.

An informative insight into the Riot Grrrl movement

Having never seen a real zine before I really enjoyed this collection. I was surprised and intrigued by the topics riot grrrls wrote about. My only criticism is in regards to the typed text as it didn't always correspond to the photocopied pages but was easier to read. I just wish this collection included more zines!

[LunaSanguine · Rating 5 out of 5]

How wonderful was this book! It made me feel less alone with my struggles. So many great thoughts, some crazy thoughts – possibly only because of the beautifully anarchistic energy of the movement. But it also shows how much there‘s still to do (even 20-30 years later), especially reffering to insersectionality.

[Caitlin · Rating 4 out of 5]

Partially insightful and relevant to today's political landscape; partially veering towards the ranting manifesto of an unhinged person. But I guess that's the point right? The zine culture is so interesting to me, so I'm glad I was able to see examples of it.

Great introduction to riot grrrl (primarily) through its zines
