Join the struggle by THOUSANDS of people worldwide, from India to Colombia, from US to Europe, to hold Coca-Cola accountable for the HUMAN RIGHTS, ENVIRONMENTAL and LABOR abuses being waged by the giant multinational.


Coca-Cola is Guilty of



  • Complicity in the murder and torture of workers in Colombia

  • Depriving communities of water, poisoning land and water and selling poisoned drinks in India

  • Exercising undue influence with the US government to get its way


Join us in this unique campaign, which brings together human rights, labor and environmental movements together to hold Coca-Cola accountable.

Coca-Cola may very well be the most recognized symbol in the world. But more importantly, the Board of Directors on Coca-Cola is a list of who's who in the business world- the ARCHITECTS of economic globalization. To name a few, Coca-Cola enjoys representation from Warren Buffet, Dow Chemical, Chevron Texaco, Barry Dilller, Peter Ueberroth, Delta Airlines, Hearst Corporation, Home Depot, J P Morgan Chase, Georgia Pacific, AT&T, International Paper, GlaxoSmithKline, GE Power Systems, Berkshire Hathaway, Bristol-Myers Squibb, American Express, Avon Products and Georgia Pacific. These so called business leaders are at the center of power that pushes for 'liberalized' trade rules, and Coca-Cola's track record is a grim reminder of what happens when corporations are allowed to roam freely.

Car pools can be arranged from New York (2.5 hours), Philadelphia (1 hour), DC (1.5hours) and Baltimore (1 hour), contact us for details and to help out for the mobilization
