It once meant where the Jews used to live in WWII Germany. Now it means an area of a city that, due to lack of income pouring in or loss of jobs or businesses moving out, crumbles away from lack of maintenence.

A temporary gathering of people designed to speak out against a cause or political event. Rarely works because the politicians who are being protested against usually send the riot police to "calm down" the protesters.
Nowadays, protests are held for the stupidest of reasons, such as censoring a cartoon that is beng shown on some television show, or preventing a grocery store from being built on an old parking lot, or animal rights.
