  Kathleen Hanna's Fire
For Hanna, who formed Le Tigre in 1999 with painter/writer Johanna Fateman and video artist Sadie Benning (who left the band after their debut album and was replaced by JD Samson, co-founder of Dykes Can Dance), the personal has long fueled the political, and the political has long fueled the music.
As a student at Washington State's Evergreen College in the late 1980s, she studied photography and did spoken word performances of her writing--an avenue of artistic expression she was persuaded to abandon by one of her favorite writers, countercultural icon Kathy Acker.
In interviews, Hanna has denied being a Riot Grrrl "founder," but the feminism espoused by that movement is very much in sync with her own--one that builds awareness from the personal experiences of oppression and unfairness that every young woman goes through and turns that awareness into action.

Hanna has been a regular at the protests being staged in her adopted home town in response to the killing of unarmed immigrant Amadou Diallo and the subsequent acquittal of the four white police officers who struck him with 19 of the 41 bullets they fired.
Hanna has been wondering about the official version of the story -- Ferguson, unarmed at the time of his death, was allegedly fleeing the officer because he was in possession of heroin.
One of Hanna's signature talents is her ability to turn these ideas into visceral, cheap-thrills rock and roll.

 index magazine interview
KATHLEEN: No, it actually started in D.C. We wanted to start a magazine, and Allison Wolfe and Molly Neuman from the band Bratmobile had started a little fanzine called Riot Grrrl and we were writing little things for it.
KATHLEEN: Part of the thing that made Bikini Kill get a lot of attention was that we were confrontational, that I was seen as a confrontational personality on stage, whereas I didn't feel confrontational at all.
KATHLEEN: She used a Bikini Kill song in that video, which just gave me shivers up my spine because I was like, "Finally somebody's doing something really cool with something I've been a part of, as opposed to just ripping it off and making fun of it." Then she just started writing me these letters.

Sleater-Kinney), the band split up in early 1998; singer Kathleen Hanna reincarnated herself as Julie Ruin, and then formed the lo-fi electronica band Le Tigre, while the other three members have continued their other band, the Frumpies.
Julie Ruin is sort of Kathleen Hanna's Buster Poindexter - an alter ego designed to distance her from her former notoriety, while she records a different style of music than her fans are accustomed to.
Initially Kathleen Hanna recruited videomaker Sadie Benning and fanzine writer Johanna Fateman to back up her Julie Ruin tour, but then they decided to form a band.

 Metroactive Music | Kathleen Hanna
IN THE EARLY '90s, Kathleen Hanna was one of the loudest, fiercest voices demanding revolution grrl-style now.
As the lead singer of the furious punk band Bikini Kill, she exemplified the naked wrath, strident earnestness and flayed emotional honesty that drove the riot-grrl movement as well as the white-hot intensity that, not surprisingly, quickly burned itself out.
About, simply, dancing alone in your bedroom, the song also celebrates a respite from public scrutiny as Hanna repeats the phrase "No one to criticize me" as if it were a mantra.

 village voice > music > Kathleen Hanna Finds Radical Pleasure Beyond Troll-Guy Reality by Hillary 'very' Chute
To describe her as a diamond in the diamond-in-the-ruff story of a punk rock Eliza Doolittle is to impose an obtuse framework on her.
It makes me cringe to sound so grad school in an article about a woman who—seemingly contrary to the activity of much of academia—has, crucially, been voicing her personal and political concerns in a manner accessible to prepubescents.
I think Kathleen has always known that surplus potency makes people nervous; that, in the words of Helene Cixous, "smug-faced readers, managing editors, and big bosses don't like the true texts of women—female-sexed texts.
