Columbia is the trade union murder capital of the world. Since 2002, more than
470 workers’ leaders have been brutally killed, usually by paramilitaries
hired by private companies intent on crushing the unions. Among these
unscrupulous corporate brands is the poster boy for American business:
Coca-Cola.
These unpunished crimes spur U.S. activists David Kovalik, Terry Collingsworth
and Ray Rogers into an ambitious crusade against the soft drink giant. A
searing indictment of a major corporate brand, The Coca-Cola Case
takes us on a riveting legal game of cat and mouse via the U.S. federal court
and the Stop Killer Coke! campaign.
After five years of struggle, will Coca-Cola yield in the end? And on the
verge of a settlement, what will the victims choose − cash, or power and
integrity?
