There are definitely many types of activism! I totally agree! Besides mass demonstrations, other types of work that I have done include:
  • CopWatch -- going on patrol to monitor the police, as a means of preventing brutality
  • Food & clothing redistributions
  • Political prisoner support
  • Books-to-prisons programs
  • Running an infoshop and a free store
  • Strikes and picket lines
  • Organising boycotts

There is more, but I think that this gives some idea. I'm absolutely on the same page as you that street marches are not the only form of activism. However, I still think that chatting with friends, running a "fun & games" workshop, and dancing at the disco doesn't count as any of them...
