Sit-in tactics

Sit-in tactics are peaceful protests where participants occupy a space by sitting down, often in a specific area like a government building or business, to draw attention to their cause. This form of protest aims to create visibility and pressure for change without violence. Participants typically refuse to leave until their demands are addressed, highlighting the importance of nonviolent resistance. Historically, sit-ins have been effective in raising awareness, challenging unfair policies, and mobilizing public support for social or political issues.
