"I'll Resist with Every Inch and Every Breath"

Girls and Zine Making as a Form of Resistance

Kristen Schilt

University of California, Los Angeles

Scholars who argue that girls lose their confidence during adolescence neglect to examine girls who do not lose their voice as teenagers. Based on written interviews and textual analysis of zines produced by girls involved in the feminist subculture of Riot Grrrl, this article maintains that zine making is one way girls form support networks and create a safe space to examine and resist the cultural devaluation of women.

Key Words: girls and adolescence • youth culture • cultural resistance
