Teaser Image: 

Scum Grrrls is a feminist (maga)zine from Brussels, Belgium, inspired by radical feminism and riot grrrl:

"Scumgrrrls emprunte son titre au Scum Manifesto de Valérie Solanas, brûlot féministe radical des années 70 ainsi qu’au mouvement des riot grrrls, appartenant au féminisme des années 90 et 2000, les conjuguant pour créer un lien entre différents courants et histoires du féminisme, entre analyse et action féministes, avec du sérieux, de l’impertinence et une dose d’humour !

Riot Grrrl World Newsletter (2003-2006)

Digital Archives: 
Teaser Image: 

FROM THE CALL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS:

"In a discussion on the Riot Grrrl Europe mailing list about zine distros (in Europe), the idea to make a "Riot Grrrl World Newsletter" or a "Riot Grrrl Chapter zine" was brought up by Jenni (of Emancypunx) and Hilde (of Lady!Die/Riot Grrrl Europe). We continued brainstorming about the possibility of the project and how we would do it and because the reactions on the mailing list were positive, we decided to give it a go.
