DERRY HOUSING ACTION COMMITTEE (DHAC)
Initially founded by a far-left group at Magee College, the DHAC quickly attracted support from republicans and others through a strategy of direct action. Prominent members included Brigid Bond, to be chairperson of Derry Civil Rights Association on Bloody Sunday. The occupation of a house in Harvey Street prevented a family being evicted. Homeless families were squatted into disused premises. Civic ceremonies and corporation meetings were regularly disrupted.
