An act of defiance is when a person gose up against authority. In this book catching fire we see many acts of defiance against the capital.
When Katniss went into her private practice she got a dummy and wrote the former game makers name on it than she smeared some berries on it so it looked bloody. Than she made a noose with some rope from the knot tieing station and put it around the dummies neck. This is an act of defiance because it was a sign that the new game maker was next.
In Peetas private practice he painted Rue and that is defiant because your not suppose to care about other tributes. He also announced at his interview that Katniss is pregnant. Thats also defiant because hes making president snow look bad because hes making Katniss fight even tho hes pregnant.
When one of the other tributes is in their interview he makes president snow look bad by saying hes not strong. Than he says if he was strong and powerful he would stop the hunger games. Thats an act of defiance because your not suppose to make president snow look bad let alone in public.
In Katniss's interview it was reviled that Cinna designed her wedding dress to burn into a mocking jay as she spun around. This is an act of defiance because the mocking jay is a symbol of rebellion.
I think the tributes where the most defiant because during their interviews they just straight up made fun of president snow
