More girls are producing media today than at any other point in
U.S. history, and they are creating media texts in virtually every
format currently possible--magazines, films, musical recordings,
and websites.
Girls Make Media explores how young female media producers have
reclaimed and reconfigured girlhood as a site for radical social,
cultural, and political agency. Central to the book is an analysis
of Riot Grrrl--a 1990s feminist youth movement from a fusion of
punk rock and gender theory-and the girl power movement it
inspired. The author also looks at the rise of girls-only media
education programs, and the creation of girls' studies.
This book will be essential reading for anyone seeking to
understand contemporary female youth in today's media culture.
