 What is Everyday Resistance?
Everyday - an adjective we use to describe
something that's seen or used every day. It means
“ordinary” or “typical.” .

Resistance - the refusal to accept or comply with

something; the attempt to prevent something by
action or argument.
What is Everyday Resistance?

Everyday resistance is about how people act in
their everyday lives in ways that might
undermine power.
 Everyday resistance is not easily recognized
like public and collective resistance – such as
rebellions or demonstrations – but it is
typically hidden or disguised, individual and
not politically articulated.
 A clear problem with the concept of “everyday
resistance” is that it risks labeling too many
other expressions as “resistance”. All
expressions of difference, deviation, or
individuality should not, we think, be labeled
“resistance”.
1. Everyday resistance is a practice (neither a
certain consciousness, intent, recognition, nor an
outcome);
2. It is historically entangled with (everyday) power
(not separated, dichotomous or independent);
3. Everyday resistance needs to be understood as
intersectional as the powers it engages (not
engaging with one single power relation); and
4. It is heterogenic and contingent due to changing
contexts and situations (not a universal strategy
or unitary action form).
“Where there is power,
there is resistance”
-Michel Foucault 
 Title: "Review of Related Literature Discussing the
Concept of Everyday Resistance"
👉In 1985, “everyday resistance” was introduced by Scott in the book
“Weapons of the Weak”
- describing a different kind of resistance, one that is not as
dramatic or visible as rebellions, riots, demonstrations, revolutions,
civil war and other such organized, collective or confrontational
articulations of resistance.

👉Scott has suggested a general categorization of resistance that

builds on two main forms:
* PUBLIC RESISTANCE
*DISGUISED RESISTANCE
👉Resistance exists as PUBLICLY declared resistance (open revolts, petitions,
demonstrations, land invasions, etc.) against:
* (1) material domination;
* (2) assertion of worth or desecration of status symbols against status
domination;
* (3) counter-ideologies against ideological domination.
👉Further, resistance exists in the DISGUISED form (low profile, undisclosed or
“infrapolitics”) as everyday resistance (e.g. poaching, squatting, desertion,
evasion, foot-dragging);
* direct resistance by disguised resisters against material domination;
* hidden transcripts of anger or disguised discourses of dignity against status
domination;
* dissident subcultures (e.g. millennial religion, myths of social banditry, class
heroes) against ideological domination.
👉Chin and Mittelman(2000), argue that these resistance is always situated, in a
context, a historic tradition, a certain place and/or social space forged by those
who rebel. And even, not to say especially, when resistance is innovative,
experimental and creative, it needs to build on the material left by other rebels
– stories, myths, symbols, structures and tools available in that special situation.
👉 According to Vinthage (2006), there are new forms of resistance connect to
old forms by using them as a stepping stone, translating existing hegemonic
elements, dislodging and recombining that which is available.
👉 According to de Certeau (1984), the everyday resistance is about the “way of
using
imposed systems” and how people use “‘popular’
tactics” in their ordinary and daily activities to turn “the actual order of things”
“to their own
ends”

Famous Filipino Literary Artists that created
works that relates to Everyday Resistance

Jose Rizal
• Noli Me Tangere
• The Reign of Greed
• Mi Ultimo Adios
The story of Pete Lacaba's "Prometheus Unbound", a
poem in which the first letters of each line, when read
downwards, spelled out a secret message for the
resistance movement against the dictator.
“Marcos Hitler Diktador Tuta”.
Concerning the Death by Assassination of Benigno Aquino Jr.,
August 21, 1983.
Cirilo F. Bautista
POEM
The sound was dead before it was uttered
Under the noon heat, having flown a sky
Of short fear and long desire: six syllables
twitched, bloodied, cut down by a secret spy
What message did they whisper in the earth
when silence shocked the bullet in the brain
the ‘end of empire? The text for violence?
Concord and clemency blooming in pain?
 
For one word, the ritual rose in heights
fewer at first, then death disguised in blue
till the world fell down, unspoken, unheard
misunderstood, misjudged declared untrue
rushed to the grave without knowing why,
while a nation mourned because it knew.
