Bikini Kill return: We want to be a part of conversation about feminism

American riot grrrl punk band Bikini Kill reunited after 20 years, playing a reunion tour. Singer Kathleen Hanna says in a Guardian interview they're back because "we want to be a part of this conversation about what feminism is in this moment”. The issues they were fighting in the 1990s are still issues - "being a woman in public is very intense, whether it’s in the public eye or just walking down the street at night by yourself”.
