Next spring, Kathleen Hanna is releasing her memoir Rebel Girl: My Life As A Feminist Punk. Today, she’s announced a book tour in support of it, which will kick off in Brooklyn the same day that it’s out (May 14) and run through a few different cities for the rest of the month. Her appearance in Seattle on May 22 will be livestreamed for those unable to attend the tour itself. A portion of the ticket sales for each show will go toward the charity Peace Sisters.
Hanna also recently announced a Bikini Kill benefit show in Olympia, which will take place on January 27 at The Capitol Theatre. Proceeds will go to the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund, and organizer Selma Al-Aswad will speak at the concert. Tickets are on sale this Thursday, December 14 — more details here.
