COMMUNITY LEADERS, STUDENTS, RELIGIOUS LEADERS, CHALLENGE COKE TO STOP DRAINING WATER FROM WORLDS POOREST COMMUNITIES
Tuesday, 23 November 2004
10:30 AM - 11:00 AM
Organizer: Corporate Accountability International
Two days before people across the US sit down to Thanksgiving dinner, activists call on Coca-Cola to stop draining water from some of the worlds poorest communities. Community leaders, students and educators speak out against Cokes abusive practices in India and deliver public comments to Coke headquarters in Atlanta. These local activists are taking part in an international day of action and telling Coke to stop stealing water. Similar events are being held in seven cities across the US in conjunction with a major protest in northeastern India, where thousands of people are gathering to demand an end to Cokes abuses.
