The Art of Peaceful Creative Dissent

The Minneapolis Frog Brigade — an independent offshoot of the Portland Frog Brigade — are committed to artfully exercising our First Amendment right to free speech in support of the US Constitution and the rule of law.

History shows that absurdity cuts through insanity, and that joy, creativity, education and community expose the moral bankruptcy of authoritarianism more effectively than anger alone.

We use spectacle and humor to counter the narrative that peaceful resistance is somehow “domestic terrorism.” It isn’t. It’s people in community, exercising their Constitutional right — sometimes with freak flags flying — to stand up and speak out for justice.

Here’s why we Frog peacefully.
And how
you can Frog too.

Our Mission

The Minneapolis Frog Brigade uses nonviolent creative dissent to speak truth to power through play. We replace fear with laughter, train people to engage constructively across political divides, and inspire art-driven movements against injustice everywhere.
