GILETS JAUNES
The Gilets Jaunes, translating to the "Yellow Vests," is a populist, grassroots political movement for economic justice originating in France in 2018. The movement is named after the high-visibility vests the protesters wear. It began as an outcry against rising fuel prices and evolved into a broader revolt against perceived elitism and economic inequality. The Gilets Jaunes have no formal leadership or organizational structure, making it a novel form of political action. Their distinctive yellow vests symbolize their demand for visibility in a society they believe overlooks them.
