Riot grrrl pioneer Kathleen Hanna: A lot of men really get off on watching a woman get angry'
Briefly

Hanna decided enough was enough. You know when these big life events happen... I just thought: This can't happen again. How can I be part of the solution?'
Hanna, who was already a rape survivor, walked over and signed up for volunteer work. I was in a moment of crisis and trying to figure stuff out, and it changed my life.
At gigs, Hanna famously called girls to the front... to put women at the forefront of culture.
Mention of riot grrrl today provokes a comically exaggerated eyeroll from Hanna. I've been asked the same questions for 25 years... That's why I wrote a book. I wanted to be one of those.
