Rebel Girl: My Life as a Feminist Punk by Kathleen Hanna
challenging
emotional
funny
reflective
slow-paced
kathleen hanna's authobiography is just as good as grown feminists expect it to be. her prose is captivating in your gut. just screams it the fuck out. she takes grace to her past and embraces it in all it's difficulty. white guilt/savorism and all.
most important of all, she takes her time trying to demythologize herself and her part in feminist history. and she gives credit where it's due.
yet kathleen hanna remains an idea to my reality. she exists and lives! but i probably wont get to know her. it's what she had to say that remains with me. the struggle, honesty, believe in going out and doing the fucking work and having fun doing it.
