Reclaim the Media!

As you may or may not know, I also write for the feminist collective blog De Tweede Sekse. I recently published a series of articles there about feminist media criticism and activism. It’s written in Dutch and you can read it here:

This is what feminism sounds like!

We’re very excited! Lost Luna is featured on this amazing riot grrrl compilation free download project: This is what feminism sounds like vol.2. You can download the songs of lots and lost of great female bands for free! Lost Luna’s song is called “Pink Bloc”. Here are the lyrics:

Watch us march
Watch us riot
Don’t just watch
Go! Participate!

Hear us shout
Hear us scream
Don’t be quiet
Go! Start a riot!

We were a bit tired of black black black
So we added some colour and a queer flavour
It doesn’t seem as macho and elite
And we have fun while we’re at it

Pink resistance – Queer resistance
Na na na nana nana na na
Pink resistance – Queer resistance
Na na na nana nana na na
