raging grannies and protest songs
With the Provincial elections rapidly approaching, I knew that my chances of running into election campaigners was high. But what a delight to hear the Raging Grannies strike up a tune as I entered the market area. The Raging Grannies - groups of older women who dress up mockingly and sing protest songs - began in the eighties in Victoria but are now considered an activist organisation with splinter groups all over the world. They sung politically-charged lyrics set to well-known folk songs. Quite a sight indeed!
