Huelga/Strike

According to Merriam Webster, a Strike is:
3 b: a temporary stoppage of activities in protest against an act or condition.


And regarding a Hunger Strike... Wikipidia states:

A hunger strike is a method of non-violent resistance or pressure in which participants fast as an act of political protest, or to provoke feelings of guilt in others, usually with the objective to achieve a specific goal, such as a policy change.


Strike... for whatever it's worth!
