About this title

Synopsis:

In 1936 200 unemployed men from Jarrow marched 300 miles against joblessness, poverty and starvation. The road they took led them not only to London but into the history books. In October 2011, the Youth Fight for Jobs campaign (YFJ) took this road once again. The modern day 'Jarrow March' was no historical re-enactment. 2011's marchers did not make the long Journey to the steps of Downing St out of a mere reverence for those forced to take the same route all those years ago. This was a march against the modern day blight: mass youth unemployment.
