Code Pink, Raging, Grannies, and the Missile Dick Chicks

In this article  Code Pink, Raging, Grannies, and the Missile Dick Chicks, they talk about how different feminist groups do performances for activism for the contemporary anti-war movement.  Specifically, in the Raging Grannies use norm-embracing stereotypes to challenge their audience.  All of these groups aim to do this- challenge their audience.  Some allow for new members to easily join the group at demonstration while others like the Raging Grannies cannot have this because of their costumes and outward appearances.
The Raging Grannies use satirical songs and rewrite lyrics to spread a message.  This is seen with a re-write of "Yankee Doodle Dandy" making fun of "Georgie Porgie".  This re-do of the song spreads their message to their audience in a well known tune making the audience able to sing along.  Similarly to this, in 8th grade my history teacher made us change the lyrics (and preform to the class) for the song, "We Didn't Start The Fire".  This well known song connected to our meaningful lyrics added relevance to current history topics.  For our re-write we needed to continue from where the song 'left off' and include relevant historical events to make the youth of today understand their recent history in a new, enjoyable way.  This is a positive way of spreading a message through media action just like the Grannies and other groups.
The goal of all these groups is to show the illegitimacy of constructing gender roles.  For instance, typically, grannies are not out fighting and protesting.  These people defy ageism and dominant gender norms and manipulate the audience's stereotypes in the process.
