198 Non-Violent Methods
By Gene Sharp
Under the category of "Methods of Social Noncooperation", boycotts ostracize people not complying with new social norms. A selective social boycott leverages the overall mission and goals of Extinction Rebellion:
"We are facing ecological collapse due to the effects of climate change – and the fashion industry plays a big role in this. As part of Extinction Rebellion’s #XR52 weeks of direct action, we urge people to #BOYCOTTFASHION for a whole year, in order to disrupt business-as-usual and send a message to government, industry and public alike that enough is enough."
As an example, Greta Thunberg says she only buys what she needs. Anyone noticing what she wears, knows that she walks her talk.
