Toronto Action for Social Change

    Toronto Action for Social Change (TASC) is a nonviolent direct-action group which organizes actions focusing on systemic roots of violence in our daily lives: sexism, militarism, poverty, corporate greed, consumerism and institutions which seek to divide and rule by turning us against one another and into mindless consumers.
    TASC conducts training sessions in nonviolent resistance across Ontario. Workshops are tailored to individual groups' needs, but include everything from history and philosophy of nonviolence to medical, legal and body protection preparation for direct action.
    TASC publishes a bimonthly newsletter, The Long Arc, detailing nonviolent resistance actions in Ontario, across Canada and around the world. It shows the incredible power of nonviolent resistance to forge social change and win us those rights which should be everyone's at birth and throughout their lives.
    TASC also publishes Resources for Radicals, an annotated bibliography of books and periodicals (see pp. 30-31).
