Description
A photograph in Community Free Press. The title above the image reads, "On Location: Ferndale" and below the image, a bold subtitle says, "RAGING GRANNIES TAKE ON AUTOMAKER."
The image depicts four women dressed in "old lady" clothing, including brimmed hats with flowers, knitted shawls, and long dresses. They are singing. The women, from left to right, are: Rosalie Haduch, holding an umbrella and page of song lyrics;, Patricia Lay-Dorsey has a sign reading, "Ford HIGHEST EMISSIONS" and sits on a motorized scooter; Charlotte Kish holds an umbrella and a sign that says, "Ford LOWEST MILEAGE;" and Nancy (McGuire) Goedert's sign reads, "HONK for EARTH DAY" and she also holds an umbrella.
Below, there is a brief explanation of a Raging Grannies protest on Earth Day outside a Ford dealership.
