Raging Grannies Evicted for Singing on Streets (Grandparents Day Action)
Raging Grannies in the heart of Silicon Valley were evicted from streets in San Jose for singing anti-war songs on Grandparents Day, Sept 10. Our appearance was part of a National Grandparents for Peace Action endorsed by Yoko Ono and centered in NYC. The local Grannies are in an ongoing battle with the owners of the tony shopping area "Santana Row" built on streets that are used as public spaces. The press including FOX affiliate KTVU (San Francisco), Metro Silicon Valley, and the Chinese World Journal have been following our story...
Earlier coverage of our performances at Santana Row, shopping streets dedicated to Gucci style haute couture (ugh) and sidewalk cafes perfect for Grannies serenading shoppers with our message of peace:
