Riot Grrrl 7

OK, this is the final part of the first interview conducted with Julia Downes for her PhD thesis on DIY Queer Feminist (Sub)cultural Resistance in the UK.

I'll take a break after this and post up the answers to the second thesis in a week or so. In the meantime, look out for further Plan B archive material, and newer posts.

7. What did you learn through your involvement with riot grrrl?
Um, tons of stuff – but nothing that can be summed up in one sound-bite, sorry. It’s not like it came as a surprise to me that women were just as able to create music or alternative ways of living as men... it’s central to my entire existence.
