The Raging Grannies (or just "Raging Grannies") are activist organizations in many cities and towns in Canada, the United States, and in other countries. The first group started in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, in 1986–87. They are social justice activists, all women old enough to be grandmothers, who dress up in clothes that mock stereotypes of older women, and sing songs at protests. They typically write the lyrics themselves, putting their political messages to the tunes of well-known songs.

  • Les Mémés déchaînées existent depuis le début des années 2000 et constituent la faction francophone des Raging Grannies, un groupe militant ayant vu le jour en Colombie-Britannique au Canada en 1987. Participant d'un "militantisme gris", elles s'associent à différentes causes (par exemple, l'environnement, la justice sociale et le féminisme, l'anti-guerre) et protestent de manière ludique par leurs vêtements et les paroles de leurs chansons.

  • Die Raging Grannies (deutsch „die wütenden, zornigen Omas“ aber durchaus auch mit dem Beiklang „entschlossene Frauen“) sind eine internationale Friedensaktivisten-Organisation, die 1986/87 im kanadischen Victoria gegründet wurde. Sie kamen in die Schlagzeilen, als sie ab 2003 gegen den Irak-Krieg der Bush-Koalition protestierten. Sie wollen ausschließlich friedlich protestieren, aber Söhne oder Enkel als Kriegshelden zu verlieren halten sie für extrem falsch. Schwerpunkte der Gruppenaktivitäten liegen heute in Kanada, USA und Griechenland. (de)
