Workers’ Defense Alliance is a network of working class people and autonomous councils organized on the job and in the streets to practice militant rank and file labor struggle and community self defense. We are an anti-capitalist, anti-authoritarian organization committed to building and maintaining autonomous worker and tenant councils, defense bodies, and mutual aid projects. We are an anti-racist and anti-sexist network that recognizes that an injury to one is an injury to all, and that the liberation of each is bound up in the liberation of all.  We set out to unmake this nightmare world we’re inheriting, and make a new one in the ashes of the old.

We are a group of people who are interested in technology, information security, making things, and breaking things— in a word, hacking.

Our work focuses on education, mutual aid, and supporting direct action.

We believe anyone who is curious about the world around them and likes to think creatively can be a hacker - not just people who work in the tech industry. Our members come from a variety of fields, from penetration testing to nursing. "Hacking" can take a variety of forms, many of them far different from what hackers do in movies.
