Definition from
Wikipedia:
A grassroots movement (often referenced in the context of a political movement) is one driven by the constituents of a community. The term implies that the creation of the movement and the group supporting it is natural and spontaneous, highlighting the differences between this and a movement that is orchestrated by traditional power structures.
Example sentences:
It’s a common misconception that social movements occur spontaneously. Although usually requiring a spark to emerge into the public eye, movements result from decades of conscious and persistent grassroots movement building efforts. (exco)
Grassroots organizing can be harder than it sounds: a mix of social networking, savvy funding, and judicious decision-making can go a long way. (eHow)
Grassroots groups have increased their activity, newspapers and magazines have begun writing more about the issue, and a recent Wall Street Journal article showed that some high-end restaurants are rebelling (CommonDreams.org)

aksi massa
Dari berita yang ada, dapat ditarik kesimpulan bahwa sesuai dengan definisi wikipedia di atas, kelihatan bahwa aksi massa sarat dengan kepentingan politik atau kepentingan pihak tertentu dalam masyarakat. Ada gambaran spontanitas karena pemimpin politiknya atau panutannya diadili sehingga ada reaksi balik berupa aksi massa.
