Coxey's Army was a protest march by unemployed workers from the United States, led by Ohio businessman Jacob Coxey. They marched on Washington, D.C. in 1894, the second year of a four-year economic depression that was the worst in United States history at the time. Officially named the Army of the Commonwealth in Christ, its nickname came from its leader and was more enduring. It was the first significant popular protest march on Washington, and the expression "Enough food to feed Coxey's Army" originates from this march.

  • Coxeyren armada Estatu Batuetako langabetuen protesta martxa izan zen, Ohioko enpresari zen zuzendutakoa. Washingtonetik abiatu ziren 1894an, lau urteko depresio ekonomikoaren (Estatu Batuak izan zuen latzena momentu horretara arte) bigarren urtean. Ofizialki Kristo Mankomunitateko Armada izendatu zuten, goitizena liderretik zetorren. Washingtonen egin zen protesta herrikoirik garrantzitsuena izan zen, eta “Janari nahikoa Coxeyren armada elikatzeko” esaldia martxa horretan jaio zen. (eu)
