"This zine is by my friend and fellow collective member Margarat. She runs a dog training business and works at a pet health food store. See a lot of Women in the radical community carry around little toy lap dogs, not that this is a bad thing, but they dress it up give it a carrier and name it ala Paris Hilton, and where is the radicalness in that? A dog is a living thing, not an accessory. So she created this zine which I LOVE. While mainly its about dogs there a few cat tips here and there. Mostly talks about flower essences for you and your pets, the downfalls of vaccinating, dog behavior in really awesome detail and how to respond to it (calming signals), and the benefits of raw food for your pets. like seriously this is the best thing I've read all year."

"Fed up with lack of access to resources for “emerging” and politically motivated artists, editors Felix Gato, Em Sixteen and L.N.R. have created riffRAG to serve as a forum for inspiration and creativity. The launch of riffRAG comes at a particularly crucial time for artists and members of politically progressive communities. The launch party is all ages will provide artists, activists and media makers a chance to build community. riffRAG highlights the extraordinary work that emerging artists across the country are creating which often slips under the radar of the art world. The website features artists working in different mediums and contexts who have distinguished themselves through political activism, artistic vision and creative determination. From whimsical works on paper by mixed-media artist Muffie White to an interview with James Spooner, the creator of the 2003 documentary film Afropunk, riffRAG places artists working in different communities in conversation with each other. It brings innovative aesthetic practice with cultural criticism, a pairing rarely seen in current artistic publications."

several not so very interesting things from some people around 2o - 25 living
together in a house in a small town in southern germany.(...) the third one (#2)
was much about moving to hamburg and new people got involved. (...) there is the
first comic story rita did in it and it's about trying to shout in a punk rock
band instead of going to university... there are also some interviews with trans
am, diavolo rosso, the sorts and some other things. number 2 1/2 is the "ego"-issue
and in there are several drawn stories and other things about an ego-trip to survive
post-teenage-depression. it was out in january 2oo1. this is r.i.l.f.f. # 3 from
december 2oo2. featuring an extraordinary short story by rosetta and a drawing/poem
by isa. plus some weird mutations rita did in 2oo2 and about (re-)learning to
read... #4 is an silent-short-8 mm-animation-film called "das monument"
(the monument) from may 2oo3. it is shown with live musical arrangement at concerts
of a band named tschilp. the film is about meeting the childhood-giant and the
(im)possibilities to live along with him. it is available as >video on demand<
with english subtitles. 6 is maybe just some recycling of my paper stuff, but
should also work as a not so darkish thing in opposite to the other one above.
and it is various papers put together with a left over from a printed poster around
it. no stories just drawings. or one can find a story by her/him self... the other
one is very small and is called "on peut aller" which is french and
means something like "one can go". there is a text in it in english/french/german
and the text is about leaving or maybe not. like the clash or something. my zines

cheerleaders

"Once
upon a time, there were two sisters in Florida who thought that protests were
too boring. So one day, they thought up some cheers and went out and made noise!
Now there are Radical Cheerleading groups all across North America. The Victoria
chapter has been active and growing since 1999. In March, 2001, Radical Cheerleaders
from all over North America converged on Ottawa for the first ever Radical Cheerleading
Convention. (After this, Radical Cheerleaders will take over the world, eliminating
patriarchy, capitalism, inequality and poverty, and we will all live happily ever
after.) Radical Cheerleading is protest and performance! It is activism with pom-poms
and combat boots! It is non-violent direct action in the form of street theater.
And it's FUN! To be a Radical Cheerleader, you do not need to be an actor, a singer
or a dancer - you just have to want to yell! (Sign Language included). Each Radical
Cheerleader decides for themselves which events they will participate in. There
is no more commitment than each member is willing to give. Most of us wear skirts,
boots and hooded sweatshirts, but there's no uniform - you can wear what you want.
No restrictions, just bring your fantastic self! There's no tryouts or popularity
contests (sorry). If you're in the Victoria, BC area and you want to join us (and
we KNOW you do), get in contact with us by email. If you live somewhere else,
try checking out the links page for information about a squad in your city-- or

grrrl Montreal fanzine (Canada) | A
print zine by Riot Grrrl Montreal (since 1999): "some of our conversation
topics are sorta serious, others sorta silly, but they mostly revolve around our
main goals which include: seeing more girls in bands -by encouraging- and making
sure they aren't condemned for wanting to do so because of their gender. taking
action to curb unhealthy images of beauty imposed by society. culture jamming.
female solidarity. fighting sexism. encourageing girls to stand up and speak out."

we do not necessarily speak for, or represent riot grrrl as a whole. we are all
individuals from different cultures, backgrounds, and ways of thinking. do not
attempt to limit us by categorization, we will knock you down every time."

This
zine "is feminist, politically incorrect, daring, and received best by freethinkers."

| Rocket
Queen
(NC/US)
| This
zine circles around the question "Why do women strip?" and tries to
demystify and demoralize this profession. From personal experience, Janet leads
you through the real strip business without a demonizing lense and analyzes the
mechanisms in place as well as the basic types of customers who go to strip clubs.
"After all, it's just another simulation."

than rationing out one Rockerchick per month, why not do a WHOLE ISSUE devoted
to their pretty faces and perfect charm? I wouldn't have to bribe anyone to write
content, I'd just do interviews. A perfect issue, a perfect plan. All I had to
do was compile a list of ladies, and presto -- here they are. I can't get over
how cute they are. I can't get over how much they squeeze into every day. I can't
believe they all said yes to my little zine and my little interviews. It just
gets me giddy inside. So read 'em and weep, you'll feel giddy, too -- and then
please, please, support their sites. Support their projects. Buy their magazines,
their bags, and their cds. Listen to their radio shows and wear their clothes.
They're doing it for real; help them keep it that way." By Dahlia Schweitzer
