A hunger march is a type of protest where a group of people, usually unemployed or underprivileged, walk long distances to demand food or work. Synonyms for hunger march include breadline, food protest, starvation march, and unemployed rally. These terms all share the same basic idea of people marching for access to food, shelter, and employment. Breadline emphasizes the long lines of people waiting for food, while food protest emphasizes the political nature of the march. Starvation march stresses the dire conditions that drive people to such extreme measures, and unemployed rally highlights the specific goal of finding work. Regardless of the terminology used, these marches all demonstrate the need for social justice and economic security.
