Democracy And Amphibian Conservation Converge In Washington, D.C. this Saturday, October 10
SAVE THE FROGS! will hold the second annual <a href="https://savethefrogs.com/march" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Million Frog March</a>, a peaceful, family-friendly gathering of frog enthusiasts, environmental activists and democracy advocates, at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. this Saturday, Oct. 10, 2026, from 1 to 3 p.m.
The march calls attention to the critical connection between healthy democracies and healthy ecosystems. With amphibian species vanishing at alarming rates due to habitat destruction, pollution and climate change, and democratic freedoms under unprecedented attack, the Million Frog March asserts that these threats are inseparable and must be fought together."We'd rather croak than be silenced!" said SAVE THE FROGS! Founder Dr. Kerry Kriger, who will deliver remarks at the event. "Frogs have become an unexpected symbol of peaceful resistance. This march is our opportunity to defend both democracy and the natural world we all depend on."
The inaugural march on November 15, 2025 drew 65 participants in green attire and inflatable frog and axolotl costumes to the National Mall, where they educated hundreds of curious tourists. This year's march features speeches connecting environmental protection with democratic values, frog-themed music and poetry, and a short march along Constitution Avenue to the Albert Einstein Memorial, just a few weeks before the midterm elections.

Written as a witty, political and social indictment of the Victorian British establishment, this tuneful satire based on The Mikado by Gilbert and Sullivan has been absent from many stages over the last few decades due to claims of political-correctness. As IN Series lampoons all forms of tyranny, from would be kings to cancel culture itself, THE MAKADO: Make America Kingly Again! An Operatico-Politico-Buffo-Satirico reimagines the iconic musical spoof as set in a great golden gilded oval office, with a cast of all too familiar characters that take no prisoners as they delight audiences and poke fun at fools from all sides. With added strains of John Phillip Sousa, new rhymes from THE CAPITOL STEPS veteran writer Bari Biern, and over-the-top costumes, sets, and comedy. THE MAKADO uses laughter and music to say what no one is saying but we’ve all been thinking…

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjunnZq5ArgycpGBkOVLUMA" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Listen to Chelsea Wolfe</a>
Acclaimed musician, songwriter, and multidisciplinary artist Chelsea Wolfe returns with new music at the center of a world that she is only beginning to reveal. “The Dark” and “Death is Not the End” arrive after a week of fan speculation, sparked by cryptic imagery, fragments of sound, and the shadowy visual language teased by Heretic Parfum across its socials.
Wolfe has become one of the most singular artists in the world, moving fluidly between doom metal, folk, industrial, electronic music, and spectral balladry. She has collaborated with artists including Deftones’ Chino Moreno, Xiu Xiu, and Converge, had her music featured in HBO’s “Game of Thrones,” co-wrote the score for the A24 horror film X with Tyler Bates, and turned heads at last year’s Ann Demeulemeester show at Paris Fashion Week.Known for building immersive worlds where darkness and beauty are indistinguishable, Wolfe has cultivated a devoted global following through music that explores transformation, spirituality, grief, longing, and the unseen forces that shape our lives. With these new songs and GHOSTS arriving in close succession, she opens the door to a new chapter that feels unmistakably her own.
