direct action

Direct action is a tactic, not a strategy.

– Kai Heron, [[Climate & Revolution: How do we transition from catastrophe?]]

Direct action, as a method of anarchism, involves those who are exploited and dominated acting for themselves, to change their situations in ways that do not depend on the goodwill or charity of others.

– [[Anarchist Cybernetics]]

direct action in the anarchist tradition as action that ‘refers to practical prefigurative activity carried out by subjugated groups in order to lessen or vanquish their own oppression’
