DePaul Students Protest Coca Cola
Coca-cola has been treating it's colombian workers like crap so DePaul students have been organizing to kick Coke off their campus
Below are some pictures of students at DePaul University protesting DePaul's exclusive contract with Coca-cola. Coca-cola has been treating it's colombian workers like crap so DePaul students have been organizing to kick Coke off their campus in order to stand with solidarity with the Colombians who have been mistreated by Coke.
As a promo for an upcoming event, DePaul Students have been braving the sub-zero weather to hand out free hot chocolate and fliers for the event. We figured that since students weren't drinking coca-cola, they could use some hot cocoa to drink and stay warm.
We have an event coming up on Thursday January 29th. Luis Adolfo, who is a Colombian refugee thanks to coca-cola, will be speaking. It will be 5:00 at SAC 154. Get off at the Fullerton El stop, and walk west to Kenmore. The entrance to SAC is on the corner of Kenmore and Belden.
