movement is a group of people with the same beliefs who work together in the attempt to 
achieve something. They oft en make use of a 
slogan, a short phrase that catches people’s attention 
and is easy to remember. The aim of a political movement might be the 
liberation of a minority, 
perhaps, or the 
integration of one particular social group into the society from which it is, or feels 
itself to be, excluded. Members of a political movement sometimes go on a 
march, a walk where 
they can demonstrate their 
solidarity with others sharing the same attitudes and aims.
