Don’t Need You Documentary On YouTube

Posted by grrrlriot on April 13, 2008

I’m sure most of you have heard about the riot grrrl documentary called “Don’t Need You”. Below is the trailer of the movie.

For more about this documentary go here for more information. I got the following information from that website as well.

“don’t need you” is a documentary film that tells the story of the origins of Riot Grrrl in the American independent music scene of the 1990s, and how this feminist movement evolved into a revolutionary underground network of education and self-awareness through music, writing, activism, and women-friendly community. The film gives audiences a chance to meet key figures in the development of Riot Grrrl and see for themselves how these women have changed the history of music and feminism forever. The film features one-on-one interviews interspersed with rare, archival materials, including original Riot Grrrl fanzines, flyers, and photographs, as well as seldom seen footage from pioneering Riot Grrrl bands like Bikini Kill, Heavens to Betsy, and Bratmobile.

Kathleen Hanna, Allison Wolfe, Corin Tucker, Sharon Cheslow, Madigan Shive, Julie Lary, Ramdasha Bikceem, Natalie Cox, Mark Andersen, and Ian MacKaye are featured in this film.

    format on your weblog. Is this a paid subject matter or did you customize it
    yourself? Either way keep up the nice high quality
    writing, it is uncommon to look a great weblog like this
