diy culture


noun: diy cultures (from a feminist perspective) refer to communities of women who take charge of do-it-yourself movements with the intention of subverting mainstream norms. an example is the roller derby movement in which the sport is owned and operated ‘by the skater for the skaters’; it is the means by which women or female athletes reject the capitalist control of the sport (beaver 2012). another diy sub-culture project is ‘craftivism’. for example, craftivists use ‘yarn bombing’ not only to reclaim crafts and bring it into the public sphere but also to create awareness about political issues. diy culture began in the punk scene when riott grrrl spurred on a young feminist movement (beaver 2012)
if you belong to the roller derby league, a diy culture, you will become a strong, athletic female and gain a sisterhood!
