SARA MARCUS with LED TO SEA

10/11/2010 5:00 pm
New York writer/musician Sara Marcus visits with a groundbreaking book on Riot Grrrl, Girls to the Front (HarperPerennial). This first-ever history tells the story of Riot Grrrl bursting audaciously onto the scene in 1991, countering in all sorts of ways a fallback in gains made by women from activism in earlier decades. This was a new generation—intense, driven, galvanized. "For a Second Wave feminist like myself, Girls to the Front evokes wonderfully the way the generation after mine soaked up the promise and the punishment of feminist consciousness: all in all, a richly moving story." - Vivian Gornick. A special part of this will be the accompanying presence and performance of Led to Sea (www.ledtosea.com). This should be a live one.
