When I was doing outside research of the riot grrrls, I came across a lot of riot grrrl tribute blogs by teenage and college-aged girls of today that revealed how many aspects of popular and underground culture that riot grrrl has trickled down to within the last 20 years or so. I got great insight into how riot grrrl has influenced many aspects of culture from movies and TV in the 1990s and early 2000s (when the movement was at the height of its popularity and cable tv allowed for niche programming still), comedy and spoken word, popular music, fashion, major magazine publications, and literature. Since another group is going to talk about riot grrrl later this week and some people may be considering doing that subculture for their final project, I thought these would be interesting reference points people could look at.
Movies and TV shows that riot grrrls enjoy (according to many blogs) since they show realistic and strong female characters:
