This week we're delighted to share a conversation with an absolute legend, the punk singer, writer, artist, activist and all-around inspiration Kathleen Hanna! Kathleen is the iconic front-woman of the bands Bikini Kill and Le Tigre and the inspiration behind of the clothing company tees4togo which benefits the Peace Sisters charity. Kathleen has just released her memoir Rebel Girl which became an instant New York Times bestseller. We talked to her about the brilliance of Viv Albertine, the genius of Gabor Maté and the formative influence of Lyle, Lyle Crocodile. Find a full list of the books Fearne mentioned at our Bookshop.org store.
